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.

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

A Kelleh carpet is a traditional Middle Eastern carpet format defined by its specific proportions, which are narrower than a standard area rug but wider than a conventional runner, historically woven across Kurdish regions.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, dyed with natural plant-based and mineral pigments to produce distinct colour shifts.

Authentic examples display asymmetrical hand-knotted construction, slight irregularities in weave, geometric or stylized floral motifs, and subtle colour variations known as abrash.

A Kelleh carpet is ideal for anchoring wide corridors, entrance halls, or open-plan living rooms, where its elongated proportions create a grounded focal point against modern flooring.

Care involves regular suction-only vacuuming without a rotating brush, addressing spills immediately with spot dampening, and seeking periodic specialist cleaning to preserve the natural fibres.
