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.

Tribal runner rugs originated as functional floor coverings woven by nomadic and village weavers across Central and Western Asia. Characterised by narrow proportions and geometric motifs, these textiles were designed specifically for corridors, tents, and long living spaces.

Traditional runners are hand-knotted or hand-woven using pure spun wool pile constructed over a wool or cotton warp and weft foundation. Natural vegetable and mineral dyes were historically used to produce the rich greens, blues, and earth tones.

Authentic hand-woven rugs display slight variations in shape, weave density, and pattern alignment. The design is visible on the underside with identical clarity to the front, and the fringe forms an integral part of the warp threads rather than being sewn on after weaving.

A long runner rug adds depth, colour, and acoustic dampening to hallway spaces, entryways, or narrow landings. It can be paired with neutral flooring materials like timber or natural sisal to anchor traffic areas while introducing geometric interest.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling the wool fibres. Promptly spot-clean spills with cold water and mild detergent, use an underlay pad to prevent slipping, and rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear.
