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

Qashqai kilims are handwoven flatweave textiles created by nomadic Qashqai tribes in southwestern Iran. Characterised by bold geometric patterns, vivid vegetable dyes, and slit-weave tapestry construction, these carpets served functional and decorative purposes within tribal tents.

These kilims are hand-spun entirely from wool yarns on portable looms, using a slit-weave tapestry technique where horizontal weft threads tightly pack over vertical warp threads. Natural dye sources, such as madder root, indigo, and walnut husks, produce the rich colour palette.

Authentic nineteenth-century Qashqai pieces display fine hand-spun wool warps and wefts, asymmetrical geometric motifs, natural abrash colour variations, and braided or tasselled fringe ends. Machine-made reproductions lack the irregular texture and hand-bound selvages typical of nomadic weaving.

A tribal kilim adds rich colour, texture, and historical interest when layered over neutral hardwood floors or paired with mid-century modern, bohemian, or minimalist furniture. They can also be displayed as decorative wall hangings or draped over seating.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush attachment to prevent pulling the woven fibres, and rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear and light exposure. Professional spot-cleaning with pH-neutral wool detergents is recommended for spillages.
