Hand-knotted weave visible on the reverse: traditional hand loom work.
Horizontal shade bands across the red field: natural dye batch abrash.
Soft indigo, madder and pea-green palette: traditional dye recipes.
Gentle, even wear across the wool pile: decades of domestic use.

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.

This Persian corridor rug originates from the Feraghan region of north-west Persia around 1900. Woven from wool and cotton, the piece displays a madder-red field filled with five geometric diamond medallions in shades of dark-green, pea-green, and ivory. Stylised birds and comb symbols decorate both ends of the red ground, surrounded by navy and cream floral multi-tiered guard borders and corner spandrels. The rug measures 300 cm high by 135 cm wide, providing substantial coverage for long transitional spaces. Suitable for bringing traditional character to an English Country House interior, the textile works well placed along a hallway, gallery, or landing floor. The composition includes repeating geometric central motifs set against the striking red field, offering a balanced traditional layout. Both ends remain complete with no visible restoration, maintaining the structural integrity of the weave. The versatile colour palette of red, navy blue, and cream integrates easily with traditional timber flooring and classic room schemes.

FAQs

Feraghan carpets originate from the Arak region of West central Iran, historically celebrated for producing high-quality hand-knotted textiles with distinct geometric medallions and fine weave structures tailored for formal spaces and long hallways.

Traditional Persian runners are crafted with a hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a cotton or wool foundation, utilising vegetable and mineral dyes to achieve rich, long-lasting colours.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-knotted construction with slight asymmetrical weave variations, natural colour abrash (gradual shade shifts), and traditional design motifs such as diamond-shaped medallions and layered guard borders.

A long Persian runner provides visual grounding, warmth, and acoustic dampening when placed in long hallways, entryways, gallery corridors, or alongside contemporary neutral furniture.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating beater bar, place a high-quality underlay beneath to prevent slippage and wear, rotate periodically to ensure even light exposure, and consult a specialist for professional cleaning.
