Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

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.

FAQs

Sharkoy kilims originate from the Thrace region of the southern Balkans and north-western Turkey, distinguished by their fine flatweave technique and delicate geometric motifs.

Kilims are hand-woven using a slit-weave tapestry technique with pure wool yarns, creating a thin, durable, pileless fabric with reversible patterns.

Authentic pieces feature small characteristic slits along colour boundaries, fine hand-spun wool, and traditional regional motifs rendered in soft, naturally derived colour palettes.

A vibrant flatweave kilim introduces pattern and warmth to neutral schemes, pairing effectively with mid-century timber furniture, leather seating, or minimalist floorboards.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating brush bar, treat liquid spills immediately with a damp clean cloth, and rotate periodically to distribute foot traffic evenly.
