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

Qajar dynasty textiles represent Persian textile production from 1789 to 1925, characterised by elaborate metallic thread embroidery, rich wools, and intricate geometric or floral patterns. These garments often denoted social standing and were worn as formal outerwear or ceremonial court attire.

Master artisans typically crafted these garments using fine woven wool, cashmere, or silk, embellished with zardozi embroidery incorporating silver or gold-wrapped metal threads. Tailors often lined the interiors with patterned silk, block-printed cotton, or woven brocade.

Authentic pieces display hand-stitched tailored construction, hand-spun wool fabric, and genuine metal thread wound around a central core thread. Examine the piece for natural oxidisation on metallic elements, regional cuts with side openings, and period-appropriate hand-sewn linings.

Historic robes and abayas are frequently displayed as wall-mounted textile art inside bespoke acrylic shadow boxes or suspended from conservation-grade rods. This presentation highlights the metallic embroidery and structural silhouette while adding historical texture to modern interiors.

Keep historic garments away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and warmth to prevent fibre degradation and metal tarnishing. Store or display flat using acid-free tissue paper to avoid stress along seam lines, and consult a professional textile conservator for cleaning.
