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

Mahal carpets originate from the Arak region in central Persia, which became a prominent centre for textile production in the nineteenth century. These carpets were specifically designed to meet Western aesthetic demands, featuring larger floral motifs, looser knotting, and balanced colour palettes.

Mahal carpets are constructed with a hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. The yarn was historically coloured using natural vegetable dyes, deriving warm terracotta tones from madder root and deep blues from indigo.

An authentic Mahal carpet typically displays an all-over floral or repeating lattice design rather than a strict central medallion. They feature a slightly suppler handle due to a moderate knot density, natural colour variations known as abrash, and a cotton foundation structure.

A terracotta Mahal carpet serves as a warm foundation in living rooms, dining spaces, or bedrooms. Interior designers often pair these carpets with neutral linen upholstery, natural wood furniture, and muted brass hardware to complement the warm rust and navy blue tones.

Regular maintenance involves gentle vacuuming using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to protect the pile fibers. Spillages should be blotted immediately with a clean dry cloth, and thorough cleaning should be performed by a professional hand-knotted rug specialist.
