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

A suzani is a decorative hand-embroidered textile created predominantly in Uzbekistan and Central Asia. Historically crafted by brides and their families as part of a marriage dowry, these pieces symbolised luck, fertility, and prosperity.

Traditional suzanis are stitched onto narrow strips of cotton or silk woven foundation cloth, which are embroidered using silk thread in chain stitch or couching techniques before being sewn together into a complete panel.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-loomed ground fabrics, visible stitch variance, vegetable-dyed silk yarns showing soft colour gradations, and vertical seams where separately stitched panels were joined to complete the design composition.

Suzanis are frequently mounted as wall art behind headboards or sofas, used as decorative throws across upholstered seating, or repurposed into cushions and textile displays.

Antique silk embroideries require careful conservation; they should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuumed gently through a protective mesh screen, and handled only by professional textile conservators when cleaning.
