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.

A Suzani is a hand-embroidered decorative textile traditionally created in Central Asian regions such as Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Derived from the Persian word for needle, these panels were historically crafted by brides and their families as part of a dowry to symbolise prosperity and union.

Suzanis are typically constructed from narrow strips of hand-spun cotton or linen fabric stitched together prior to embroidery. The intricate motifs are worked in silk or wool threads using primary needlework techniques such as chain stitch, couching stitch, and buttonhole stitch.

Authentic antique Suzanis display hand-drawn foundation lines on the base fabric, slight misalignment of patterns where joined narrow strips meet, and natural dye variations across the silk threads. Modern synthetic reproductions usually feature uniform colours, machine stitching, and single-piece backings.

An antique Suzani can be mounted onto fabric frames and displayed as statement wall art above a headboard or sofa. Large embroidered panels can also be draped across upholstered seating or used as decorative bed covers to introduce color and historic pattern.

To preserve delicate silk and cotton fibres, antique embroideries must be kept out of direct sunlight and high-humidity areas. Cleaning should only be undertaken by a professional textile conservator, and mounting should utilise acid-free backing materials.
