About the Item

This is a Vintage Tulu Carpet from Central Anatolia, the Konya region with shaggy wool long hair, good condition, and beautiful color composition. Central Anatolian Tulu rugs, also known as Tulu carpets or Tulu kilims, are traditional handcrafted rugs that originate from the Central Anatolian region of Turkey. Tulu rugs are known for their unique and distinctive features, making them highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Tulu rugs are characterized by their long pile, which is created by knotting or felting wool onto a woven base. The pile is usually thick, soft, and fluffy, giving the rugs a cozy and luxurious texture. The wool used in Tulu rugs is often sourced locally from sheep raised in the region. In terms of design, Central Anatolian Tulu rugs typically feature geometric patterns, stylized motifs, or tribal symbols. The colors used in Tulu rugs are usually rich and earthy, reflecting the natural surroundings and traditional dyeing techniques of the region. One distinguishing feature of Tulu rugs is the shaggy texture of their pile, which creates a distinctive visual appeal. The long wool fibers are often left untrimmed, giving the rugs a plush and tactile quality.
