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

Antique tribal bag face cushions are repurposed woven panels originally crafted by nomadic weavers as storage sacks, known as khordjin or chanteh, for transport on livestock. These durable textiles featured geometric motifs specific to local tribes and were later stuffed or backed to serve as decorative soft furnishings.

These pieces are typically hand-knotted or hand-woven using hand-spun sheep wool on a wool warp and weft, often incorporating natural vegetable dyes. The pile or flat-weave front is joined to a heavy backing fabric, frequently trimmed with wool fringe or side selvedges.

Authentic examples display slight irregularities in weave, colour variation known as abrash from hand-dyed wool batches, and natural wear consistent with practical historical use. Inspecting the back reveals hand-knotted structure and hand-stitched finishing rather than uniform machine production.

Position the cushion on a leather sofa, neutral armchair, or woven wooden bench to introduce rich texture and historic pattern. Combining geometric tribal textiles with contemporary minimalist or bohemian decor creates a layered, tactile contrast.

Vacuum gently on low suction without a rotating brush, and spot clean spills immediately using cold water and a neutral wool detergent. Professional dry cleaning or specialist rug cleaning is recommended for deep maintenance to prevent colour bleeding or fibre damage.
