Archival Detail
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.

Originating from northwestern Iran, Heriz rugs are hand-knotted Persian carpets renowned for their rectilinear geometric designs, central star or diamond medallions, and highly durable construction.

Authentic Heriz rugs are woven with hand-spun wool pile onto a cotton warp and weft foundation, using vegetable-based dyes to achieve tones of terracotta, ivory, and indigo blue.

Authentic examples display hand-knotted asymmetric Persian weaving on a heavy cotton foundation, distinct geometric or stylized floral motifs, and natural colour variations known as abrash across the wool yarn.

Position a small Heriz rug in an entryway, hallway, or under accent seating to introduce geometric structure, warm colour contrast, and historic texture over modern timber or stone flooring.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a rotating brush bar, turn the rug periodically to balance foot traffic, and arrange professional specialist cleaning for stains or deep maintenance.
