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.

Originating from the Heriz region in Northwest Iran, these carpets are celebrated for their bold, rectilinear medallion designs and expansive corner spandrels. Woven by village weavers, they combine traditional tribal geometry with formal Persian carpet layouts.

Heriz carpets are hand-knotted using durable hand-spun wool pile woven onto a thick cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool is dyed using natural vegetable and plant extracts, resulting in rich terracotta reds, indigo blues, and ivory tones.

Authentic Heriz pieces feature symmetrical double-knot construction with a lower knot density that creates stylized, angular patterns rather than curvilinear designs. Variations in colour, known as abrash, along with slight geometric asymmetry, indicate natural hand-dying and artisan weaving.

A large Heriz carpet serves as an anchor in a living room, dining area, or study, pairing equally well with dark mahogany furniture or sleek contemporary seating. The terracotta and navy palette provides warmth and visual structure across minimalist or eclectic decorative schemes.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar to protect the wool fibres. Rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear and sun exposure, and treat spills immediately by blotting with clean water and mild soap.
