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

Originating from the Arak region of Persia, Mahal carpets featuring the Mostafi design are recognised by sweeping botanical scrolls, stylized floral motifs, and a structured lattice layout that gained immense popularity in Western interiors during the late nineteenth century.

These carpets were hand-knotted by weavers using hand-spun wool pile on a durable cotton warp and weft, utilizing natural vegetable dyes to produce rich tones of indigo, terracotta, and cream.

Authentic examples from circa 1900 exhibit subtle natural dye variations known as abrash, a supple hand-knotted structure, original webbed selvedges, and visible asymmetrical knots on the underside.

A large Persian carpet serves as a grounding focal point, adding depth and historic texture beneath contemporary minimalist furniture or enhancing traditional layered decor with dark timbers and tailored upholstery.

Preservation requires regular vacuuming without a suction brush head to avoid pulling fibres, prompt spot-cleaning of spills with cold water, and periodic washing by a specialist textile restorer alongside high-quality underlay.
