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.

Afshar carpets are hand-woven textiles originating from the Afshar tribe, a Turkic group located in south-eastern Iran around Kerman. These carpets traditionally combine nomadic tribal motifs with stylistic influences from surrounding urban weaving centres, featuring bold geometric compositions and rich colour palettes.

Traditional Afshar carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for the pile, anchored to a wool or cotton foundation. Artisans employ natural plant and mineral dyes to produce the yarn colours, creating dense, durable textiles with asymmetric or symmetric knotting techniques.

Authentic Afshar rugs feature a flexible textile handle, subtle colour variations known as abrash, and detailed geometric design schemes often based around central diamond medallions. Inspecting the underside reveals clear, exposed knot structures without latex or synthetic backing.

A geometric Persian rug serves as a foundational anchor in contemporary or traditional interior schemes. Placing a large pattern beneath mid-century or minimalist furniture creates contrast and defines distinct functional zones within living and dining spaces.

Maintain a vintage wool carpet by vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting to protect the fibres and edges. Blot liquid spills immediately with an absorbent cloth and consult a specialist textile cleaner for periodic professional hand-washing.
