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.

An Okbash is a traditional woven textile bag or cover crafted by nomadic Yomut Turkmen tribes of Central Asia, historically designed to protect and decorate the ends of tent poles during seasonal migrations.

Turkmen tribal textiles are hand-woven using hand-spun sheep wool dyed with natural vegetable and mineral pigments, constructed with precise knotting techniques to form geometric patterns.

Authentic late 19th-century pieces feature rich natural dye variations, precise geometric symmetry, serrated latch-hook motifs, and a soft texture resulting from aged hand-spun wool.

Mounted on a neutral wall or framed within a modern acrylic display box, an antique tribal textile introduces geometric structure and organic texture to contemporary living spaces.

Display the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, vacuum lightly using low suction with an upholstery nozzle, and consult a specialist conservator for deep cleaning.
