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.

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

Shirvan rugs are hand-knotted carpets traditionally produced in the Shirvan region of the eastern Caucasus, known for their distinctive geometric motifs and refined tribal artistry.

These pieces typically feature hand-spun wool piles knotted onto wool or cotton foundations, utilizing vegetable-derived natural dyes to achieve rich, enduring colours.

Authenticity is determined by examining the weave structure, symmetrical or asymmetrical knotting, the natural variation of organic dyes, and the specific characteristics of the tribal border designs.

An antique runner brings texture and historical grounding to modern hallways or kitchens, pairing effectively with minimalist furniture and neutral flooring to let the complex patterns stand out.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, prompt professional cleaning when necessary, and the use of a breathable underlay to prevent sliding and wear.
