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.

Mahal carpets originate from the Arak region in central Persia, woven predominantly during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They are recognized for their supple handle, large-scale floral motifs, and distinctive colour palettes.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton foundation. Natural vegetable dyes, derived from local plants and minerals, provide the varied tones of terracotta, indigo blue, and cream.

Authentic examples feature slight variations in colour known as abrash, caused by hand-dyed wool batches, alongside a soft, flexible handle and visible asymmetrical hand-knotting on the underside.

Anchor a contemporary seating arrangement by placing a large wool carpet under central furniture to introduce texture, warm tones, and visual contrast against clean architectural lines.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a rotary brush to protect the natural fibres, rotate the carpet annually to ensure even wear, and address spills immediately with spot cleaning.
