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.

Caucasian Chichi rugs originate from the Daghestan region in the Caucasus mountains and are renowned for their intricate, highly detailed geometric patterns. They typically feature a signature border composed of alternating diagonal slashes and rosette motifs surrounding a densely patterned central field.

These textiles were hand-knotted by nomadic and village weavers using locally sourced wool for both the pile and the warp/weft foundation. The vibrant shades of navy, deep red, cream, and muted yellow were achieved using natural vegetable and mineral dyes.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display a soft wool hand, slight asymmetric variations in design (known as abrash), and a dense weave structure with a low pile. The presence of natural dye variations and the characteristic diagonal ribbon-and-rosette main border are key identifiers.

The rich geometric motifs and bold colour palette render these rugs versatile accent pieces in contemporary spaces. Interior designers frequently layer them over neutral large-scale sisal or jute rugs, placing them in libraries, entryways, or minimalist living rooms to add texture and historical warmth.

To preserve delicate wool fibres, vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a beater bar. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth, and engage professional rug restorers specialising in antique hand-knotted textiles for deep washing.
