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.

This late 19th-century Tekke Turkmen flat weave Palas kilim originates from the tribes of Turkmenistan in the period around 1880. Produced in an all-woollen construction using the cicim technique, the rug presents an attractive striped design created with horizontal band motifs and chevron geometric patterns. The wool fabric displays distinct shades of red, navy, and ivory, complemented by visible signs of age including a competent reweave to the top end. At 283 cm high by 145 cm wide, the rectangular kilim provides a substantial textile surface for a living room, hallway, or bedroom interior. Placed upon the floor or hung on a wall, the piece brings an authentic tribal aesthetic to Glastonbury boho and eclectic interior schemes in contemporary homes.

FAQs

A Tekke Turkmen Palas kilim is a flatwoven textile crafted by the nomadic Tekke tribe of Turkmenistan, characterized by horizontal bands of geometric motifs and extra-weft brocading.

These textiles are woven using hand-spun sheeps wool coloured with natural vegetable dyes, incorporating both simple flatweave and supplementary-weft Cicim brocading techniques.

Authentic examples feature natural colour abrash variations, hand-spun wool yarns, intricate geometric band patterning, and traditional selvedge construction.

A Turkmen kilim functions as a focal floor covering in living spaces, an accent layer over neutral carpeting, or a decorative wall hanging in contemporary and eclectic interiors.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting, spot clean spills immediately with cold water and an absorbent cloth, and employ professional specialist cleaning when required.
