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

Khamseh rugs originate from the Fars province in South Persia, woven by a confederation of nomadic tribes formed in the nineteenth century. These textiles are renowned for their geometric layouts, rich colour palettes, and incorporation of tribal symbols and natural figures.

Traditionally, Khamseh rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation warp and weft. The yarns are dyed using natural vegetable and plant-based dyes, resulting in rich variations in colour known as abrash.

Authentic pieces exhibit flexible wool foundations, hand-tied asymmetrical or symmetrical knots, and minor geometric irregularities typical of tribal looms. Key design features include multi-bordered edges, stacked central diamond medallions, and small stylized motifs such as pomegranates or birds.

A geometric tribal rug provides visual warmth and contrast when paired with contemporary neutral furniture, dark wood, or minimalist interiors. Placing the rug in an entryway, study, or living area adds rich colour and historical texture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a motorized beater bar to protect the wool fibres. Promptly spot-clean spills with a damp cloth and mild soap, use a quality rug underlay to prevent slippage, and periodically rotate the rug to ensure even wear.
