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.

An ilgich is a square embroidered decorative textile created by nomadic Lakai women of Central Asia, traditionally made as part of a bridal dowry to adorn yurts or homes.

These textiles were typically constructed using silk threads worked in tiny chain stitch (ilmme) or cross-stitch onto felt, wool, or cotton grounds, often finished with woven borders and fringe.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display natural vegetable dyes, bold curvilinear or solar motifs, dense silk chain stitching, and slight irregularities inherent to hand-loomed and hand-dyed nomadic production.

A traditional embroidered panel can be custom-mounted inside a museum-quality shadow box frame or suspended from a conservation-grade velvet slant board to preserve the fabric while displaying its colours.

Keep the textile away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Cleaning should strictly be left to professional textile conservators using low-suction micro-attachments and chemical-free techniques.
