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.

Heriz carpets originate from the Northwest region of Iran, woven in villages surrounding the town of Heris. They are recognised for geometric interpretations of classical medallion designs, strong wool construction, and saturated colour palettes derived from natural dyes.

Traditional Heriz carpets feature a hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. Weavers utilise symmetric Turkish knots, creating a robust weave with high tensile strength and longevity.

Authentic late 19th-century Heriz carpets display distinct angular medallion patterns, natural dye variations such as madder root red and indigo, and a heavy wool pile. The underside reveals an irregular, hand-knotted structure without machine stitching or synthetic backings.

A Heriz carpet provides structural contrast when placed alongside contemporary neutral furnishings or minimalist timber pieces. The bold geometric medallion anchors large living areas, dining spaces, or formal study rooms.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar to avoid fibre damage. Rotate the carpet annually to balance foot traffic and light exposure, and rely on specialist dry cleaning for stain removal.
