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.

Mahal carpets originate from the Arak weaving region in central Persia, historically known for producing large-scale woven textiles with floral and geometric motifs from the late nineteenth to early twentieth century.

Traditional Mahal carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft foundation, employing asymmetrical Persian knots.

Authentic pieces display hand-dyed vegetable yarns, slight colour variations known as abrash, a flexible cotton structure, and characteristic repeating all-over patterns such as the Mina Khani rosette lattice.

A large-scale floral Persian carpet grounds modern living rooms or dining spaces by providing warmth, contrasting against minimalist architecture and complementing natural timber furniture.

Routine care involves gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush bar, rotating the rug periodically to ensure even wear, using a protective underlay, and professional dry cleaning when required.
