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.

Saroukh Mahal carpets originate from the Arak weaving region in central Persia. They are characterized by hand-knotted wool piles on cotton foundations, displaying structured floral designs, central medallions, and palette schemes dominated by crimson reds and deep navy blues.

These carpets are constructed using hand-spun wool knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. Artisans historically used natural vegetable dyes to create long-lasting shades of red, blue, cream, and green.

Authenticity is indicated by slight variations in knot density, natural colour variations known as abrash, soft flexible foundations, and hand-overcast edges rather than machine-bound borders.

A crimson oriental rug serves as an anchor in a space, harmonising with neutral upholstery, modern minimalism, or dark timber joinery to create contrast and texture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a beater bar, rotate the rug annually to distribute tread wear evenly, and address spills immediately with cold water and clean absorbent cloths.
