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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Afshar rugs are hand-woven tribal textiles created by the nomadic and semi-nomadic Afshar people of south-eastern Persia. They typically feature geometric motifs, stylised floral patterns, and vase designs woven on durable wool foundations.

Traditional Afshar carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation. The yarns were historically dyed using natural vegetable dyes, yielding terracottas, deep blues, and warm ivory shades.

Authentic 1920s pieces feature asymmetrical hand-knotted constructions, slight abrash variations in dye colours, and characteristic tribal motifs such as stylised vases or central medallions. The underside reveals clear knotting indicative of hand loom production.

An ivory ground Afshar rug functions as a neutral yet patterned anchor in living rooms, dining areas, or studies. Its geometric tribal patterns complement both classic timber furniture and contemporary minimalist decor.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating beater bar prevents fibre wear and grit accumulation. Spills should be blotted immediately with a clean, dry cloth, and professional cleaning by a specialist oriental rug restorer is recommended periodically.
