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.

A Jajim or Moj is a traditional flat-woven textile produced by nomadic and tribal weavers in Persia, historically crafted in narrow strips on portable looms and stitched together to create larger floor coverings, blankets, or wall hangings.

Bakhtiari flat weaves are traditionally constructed from hand-spun wool warp and weft threads, often coloured using natural plant and mineral dyes. The pieces are woven using tight flat-weave techniques featuring geometric patterns and joined panels.

Authentic tribal Jajim textiles typically exhibit central seam lines where narrow loom-woven panels are joined together, along with characteristic geometric banded motifs, hand-knotted fringe finishing, and subtle variations in weave density.

A flat-woven tribal textile can be displayed as a decorative wall hanging, draped across seating, layered over neutral floor coverings, or positioned at the foot of a bed to introduce geometric patterning and texture.

To preserve flat weave wool textiles, vacuum gently without a rotating brush, protect from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, address spots immediately with mild soapy water, and consult a professional restorer for deep cleaning.
