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

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 carpets are traditionally woven by the Afshar nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes residing in the southern regions of Iran, known for their distinct geometric patterns and rich cultural heritage.

Authentic pieces are typically hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often dyed with natural vegetable colorants yielding deep red and blue tones.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregular knot density, natural colour variations known as abrash, specific tribal motifs, and the construction of the selvages and fringes.

These textiles add texture and warmth to contemporary spaces when placed on neutral flooring, serving as a grounding anchor beneath modern furnishings or minimalist architectural elements.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without the beater bar, professional organic washing when necessary, and avoiding direct sunlight to prevent colour fade.
