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.

Kizil Ayak rugs are hand-woven textiles produced by the Kizil Ayak sub-tribe of the Turkmen people, primarily in Northern Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. They are distinguished by their geometric gol (medallion) patterns, deep madder red dyes, contrasting ivory fields, and high-density hand-knotted wool construction.

Traditional Turkmen rugs are constructed primarily from hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and warp/weft foundation. Natural vegetable and mineral dyes, particularly madder root for reds and indigo for blues, were historically utilised to produce deep, long-lasting hues.

Authentic pieces feature hand-knotted asymmetrical or symmetrical wool knots, natural colour variations (abrash), flexible woollen foundations, and hand-bound selvedges. The presence of traditional tribal gols and minor geometric motifs rather than printed or machine-tufted backing confirms genuine hand-crafted origin.

A small tribal rug works effectively as a focal point in an entryway, beneath a coffee table, or layered over neutral sisal flooring. The rich red and cream tones complement both contemporary minimalist spaces and dark academia or traditional wood-panelled rooms.

Vacuum regularly without using a rotating brush bar to protect the pile. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth and mild water solution, avoiding harsh chemicals, and utilise a professional rug cleaner specializing in antique textiles for deep cleaning.
