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.

A Kelleh rug is a traditional hand-woven Persian or Kurdish carpet characterised by its long, medium-width proportions, historically crafted to fit the central display area of traditional Middle Eastern interior layouts.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool or cotton foundation, with yarn coloured using traditional natural plant dyes.

Authentic pieces feature slight asymmetry in their geometric patterns, natural variations in colour tone known as abrash, and a dense, heavy wool pile structure.

The long, wide proportions make a Kelleh carpet well-suited for wide hallways, open-plan living rooms, or beneath dining tables to anchor contemporary schemes with historic pattern.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating beater bar, immediate spot cleaning with clean water, and periodic specialist cleaning preserve the wool fibres and organic dyes.
