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.

Baluch bags, traditionally known as khorjin or saddlebags, were woven by nomadic Baluch tribes residing in eastern Persia and western Afghanistan. Used originally to transport goods on pack animals or store household items inside tents, these functional textiles reflect geometric designs and deep natural dye palettes unique to nomadic weaving traditions.

These textiles are typically hand-woven using hand-spun sheep wool for both the warp, weft, and pile, occasionally incorporating goat hair or camel hair for added structural durability. They feature a combination of pile weave on the decorative front face and flatweave kilim techniques on the back and closure flaps, finished with hand-dyed wool yarn.

Authentic pieces demonstrate natural, vegetable-based dyes that create subtle colour variations known as abrash, alongside flexible, soft wool handles and structural wear consistent with functional age. They also exhibit asymmetric knotting, intricate braided tassels along the edges, and tribal geometric motifs rather than floral Persian city patterns.

These woven textiles add rich texture and historical depth when mounted as wall art in a hallway, framed behind glass, or repurposed as decorative accent cushion covers on neutral leather or linen seating.

Keep the textile away from direct sunlight to prevent natural dyes from fading, and vacuum gently on a low setting using a brush attachment without a rotating beater bar. Professional cleaning should only be performed by a specialist in hand-woven oriental rugs and antique textiles.
