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 Markazi province in Persia, Sarouk carpets from the early 20th century are renowned for their dense weave, rich floral patterns, and central medallion designs. These rugs traditionally featured deep blue, terracotta, and cream tones, crafted primarily for export to Western markets.

Authentic Sarouk carpets are hand-knotted using high-grade wool pile woven onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool is dyed using natural plant and mineral dyes, which mature over time to produce soft, muted colour variations across the pile.

Authentic pieces exhibit dense asymmetrical knotting visible from the reverse, soft yet heavy wool pile, and intricate floral sprays surrounding a central medallion. Earlier examples often display subtle abrash, which refers to natural tonal shifts in the dyed wool.

A traditional carpet adds grounding warmth and texture beneath neutral contemporary seating in a living space or beneath a dining table. Pairing the detailed floral motifs with sleek furniture creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern minimalism.

Vacuum regularly on a low setting without using a rotating brush bar to prevent fibre damage. Professional hand-washing by a specialist carpet restorer is recommended every few years to clear embedded dust without degrading the natural wool oils.
