Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Soumak carpets are traditional flat-woven textiles originating from the Caucasus region, crafted using an extra-weft wrapping technique that creates a smooth front face and a textured reverse side.

These carpets are hand-woven using locally sourced sheeps wool for both the warp and weft, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes to produce rich crimson, indigo, and earth tones.

Authentic examples feature hand-spun wool, minor colour variations known as abrash, distinct geometric star or medallion motifs, and loose discontinuous yarn ends visible on the reverse.

Geometric patterns and deep saturated tones allow these textiles to serve as grounding focal points in contemporary minimalist spaces, traditional timber-panelled rooms, or eclectic interior schemes.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a rotary brush, rotate the piece annually to equalize traffic wear, and consult a professional textile restorer for stain removal.
