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.

FAQs

Bakshiash carpets originate from the Heriz region of northwest Iran and are known for their geometric floral interpretations, earthy palettes, and coarse, durable wool construction.

These rugs are traditionally hand-knotted using local hand-spun wool pile on cotton foundations, dyed with natural vegetable colorants such as madder root and indigo.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-spun wool with abrash colour variations, asymmetrical knotting, and characteristic geometric floral motifs that differ from the finer, more rigid designs of city-woven Persian carpets.

A large antique carpet grounds contemporary minimalist or transitional spaces by adding warmth, texture, and historic character without overwhelming modern architectural lines.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing by specialists in antique textiles, and protection from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
