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.

Afshar rugs are nomadic Persian textiles woven by the Afshar tribe in south-eastern Iran, characterised by their durable wool construction, geometric medallions, and stylized floral motifs.

These carpets are constructed with a hand-knotted wool pile woven onto a wool or cotton foundation, coloured using natural vegetable and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-tied knots visible on the reverse, subtle abrash colour variations in the pile, geometric diamond or stepped medallion patterns, and flexible wool foundations.

A rich geometric rug acts as a grounding foundational layer in living rooms or studies, contrasting effectively against neutral modern upholstery, exposed floorboards, or contemporary wood furniture.

Regular vacuuming using a suction-only setting preserves the fibres, while spot cleaning should be done with minimal water and neutral detergent; professional specialist washing is recommended periodically.
