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.

Heriz carpets originate from the Northwest region of Iran and are characterized by their bold, large-scale geometric designs, prominently featuring a grand central medallion, stepped spandrels, and multi-layered composite borders. Unlike curvilinear city carpets, Heriz weavers executed stylized angular foliage and floral motifs, resulting in a distinct graphic structure.

These carpets are hand-knotted using local wool spun onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool from the Mount Sabalan region is thick and resilient due to trace minerals in the water, woven with Turkish (symmetrical) knots to create a durable pile capable of withstanding heavy foot traffic.

Authentic pieces exhibit geometricized floral patterns rather than smooth rounded lines, along with a cotton foundation and heavy knotting. Natural vegetable dyes produce subtle colour variations, known as abrash, across the field, and the reverse side shows clear knot definition consistent with hand weaving.

A Heriz carpet serves as an anchor for central seating arrangements, dining areas, or grand entrance halls. Its saturated palette of madder red and indigo pairs effectively with natural timber floors, leather seating, and contemporary neutral upholstery to create visual contrast.

Regular vacuuming using a suction-only attachment preserves the pile, avoiding the use of rotary beater bars. High-traffic rugs should be rotated annually to ensure even wear, used with a suitable non-slip underlay, and professionally cleaned using traditional wool-washing methods when required.
