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.

Kurdish Kordi rugs are hand-knotted textiles traditionally created by Kurdish weaving communities, renowned for their bold geometric patterns, iconic Memlinc guls, and vibrant natural dyes.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile on a wool foundation, yielding a durable structure coloured with natural vegetable-based dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit distinctive geometric motifs such as stepped Memlinc guls, wool warp and weft threads, and subtle abrash colour shifts resulting from small-batch hand-dyeing.

A geometric tribal rug provides visual warmth and texture beneath modern neutral furniture, within rustic settings, or alongside dark wood cabinetry.

Vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, clean liquid spills immediately using damp cloths, and rotate the rug periodically to distribute wear evenly.
