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.

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

A Baluch rug is a hand-woven textile traditionally crafted by nomadic Baluch tribes living across eastern Iran and western Afghanistan.

These rugs are predominantly hand-knotted using locally sourced hand-spun wool for both the pile and warp, occasionally incorporating goat hair into the side selvedges.

Authentic pieces typically feature soft wool pile, rich dark colour palettes dominated by deep madder red and indigo blue, and geometric repeating gul motifs.

A Baluch rug adds depth and texture when layered over natural floorings or placed alongside dark timber furniture and muted modern upholstery.

Keep the rug out of direct sunlight, vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically for balanced wear, and seek professional cleaning when necessary.
