Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Afshar rugs are hand-knotted textiles woven by the Afshar tribe, a historically nomadic group situated primarily in south-eastern Iran. These rugs are recognised for their geometric compositions, stylized boteh or medallion patterns, and durable wool construction.

Traditional Afshar rugs are crafted using a natural wool pile knotted onto a foundation made of either wool or cotton. The yarns are dyed using vegetable and organic dyes, producing rich terracotta, indigo blue, and ivory tones.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-bound selvedges, slight variations in the dye weave due to hand-dying processes, and a flexible wool foundation. The design typically features geometric repeating motifs or central medallions accompanied by multi-tiered decorative borders.

Place the rug as a central anchor in a living room, study, or hallway to add warm colour and pattern. The deep terracotta and blue hues pair effectively with natural timber, leather seating, and neutral upholstery.

Vacuum the rug regularly using a suction-only setting to avoid damaging the pile fibres. Rotate the rug annually to ensure balanced exposure to light and foot traffic, and treat spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth.
