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.

Qashqai rugs were traditionally woven by the Qashqai, a confederation of nomadic tribes living in the Fars province of southwestern Persia. These rugs reflect nomadic weaving heritage, characterised by geometric patterns, central medallions, and stylized depictions of local flora and fauna.

Qashqai rugs are hand-knotted using locally sourced hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation. The wool is dyed using natural plant and mineral dyes, resulting in rich navy, terracotta, ochre, and blue tones woven on portable horizontal looms.

Authentic Qashqai rugs feature a wool warp and weft, asymmetric or symmetric hand-tying, and slight variations in pattern symmetry typical of nomadic looms. Look for traditional motifs such as repeated diamond pole medallions, stylized animals, geometric flowers, and multi-layered guard borders.

A Qashqai rug adds depth and color balance to contemporary or traditional spaces. Position the rug centrally under living room furniture or beneath a dining table on natural timber flooring to highlight its rich dark navy and terracotta hues.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling fibres. Clean spills immediately with a damp cloth and mild neutral soapy water, rotate the rug annually to distribute tread wear, and use a high-quality rug pad underneath.
