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.
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.
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.

Traditionally, Bidjar carpets feature a thick wool pile hand-knotted onto a sturdy cotton or wool foundation. Double-weft construction and heavily pounded knots create an exceptionally dense, durable texture designed to withstand decades of use.

Authentic Bidjar carpets are distinguishable by their remarkable weight and rigidity relative to size, alongside precise hand-knotted detailing visible on the reverse side. The pile is densely packed, and the dyes historically derive from natural vegetable sources, yielding rich tones that age gracefully.

An antique Bidjar carpet anchors modern spaces by providing depth, rich colour, and geometric structure beneath contemporary neutral furniture. It pairs exceptionally well with polished hardwood floors, dark timber accents, and brass or leather furnishings.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotary beater bar to avoid damaging the wool fibres. Spills should be blotted immediately with a clean dry cloth, and professional cleaning by an oriental rug specialist is recommended every few years.

Originating from the Bidjar region in northwest Persia, these carpets are historically renowned for their extremely dense weave and heavy construction. They typically feature intricate central medallions, stepped spandrels, and repeating floral motifs woven into thick wool piles.
