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.

Originating from the city of Isfahan in central Persia, these rugs developed during the Safavid dynasty and are characterized by high knot density, central medallions, symmetrical layouts, and intricate floral arabesques.

Isfahan rugs are typically hand-knotted using high-grade wool pile woven onto a durable cotton or silk warp and weft foundation, often utilizing natural vegetable dyes for subtle colour variations.

Authentic pieces exhibit fine, dense hand-knotting visible on the reverse side, intricate vine-and-scroll motifs, asymmetrical Persian knots (Senneh), and natural abrash or colour variations in the pile.

A distressed oriental rug creates grounded contrast beneath contemporary clean-lined furniture, fits naturally alongside dark timber in traditional settings, or anchors a layered modern interior with low-contrast colour tones.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar, rotate the rug annually to distribute tread wear evenly, clean spills immediately with cold water, and use professional hand-cleaning services when necessary.
