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.

Heriz carpets originate from the Heris region in Northwest Iran and are distinguished by their bold, rectilinear patterns and prominent central medallions. Crafted by village weavers, these textiles translate classical court rug designs into geometric, architectural expressions.

These carpets are hand-knotted using coarse wool pile woven onto a thick cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool is dyed using traditional natural dye sources, producing enduring shades of madder red, indigo blue, and ivory.

Authentic Heriz pieces feature geometric interpretations of floral motifs, stepped corner spandrels, and symmetrical Turkish (Ghiordes) knots. The weave is durable with a thick pile, and the underside shows visible foundation threads along the structure.

A large Heriz carpet serves as a structural anchor in a living room or dining area, grounding contemporary minimalist furniture with pattern and warm tone. The terracotta and dark blue hues pair effectively with natural timber, neutral upholstery, and architectural lighting.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush bar removes embedded grit from the pile. Professional hand-washing every few years maintains the wool fibres, and periodic rotation balances natural wear and light exposure.
