About the Item

This is a vintage Tulu Blanket rug using long-pile wool, a hallmark of traditional mountain weaving. Tulu (meaning “hairy” in Turkish) rugs are known for their thick, shaggy pile and were originally created by nomadic tribes in the Karapinar and Konya regions for use in cold winters. This particular piece is woven entirely from hand-spun wool, giving it a rich texture and organic depth. Its soft, undyed gray and brown tones exude an earthy, minimalist charm while still offering strong tactile warmth. The rug's luxurious, plush pile is not only aesthetically striking but also highly functional—ideal for insulating stone or earthen floors. Each square panel within the piece subtly reflects the artisan’s hand, forming a checkered composition through tonal variation and pile direction. Tulu rugs like this one are prized today for their primitive beauty and folk-modern appeal, often used in mid century wabi-sabi, and art-forward interiors. This is a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of textile heritage—where tribal craft meets modern design sensibility. Key Features: Origin: Anatolia, Turkey Type: Vintage Tulu Blanket Rug Material: Premium Wool Technique: Hand Woven (Very Light Weight) Size: 8'1" x 10'1" Color: Brown Design: Minimalist Grid with Textural Variation Celebrate the artistry of soulful Tulu rug—a perfect statement of texture, tradition, and timeless utility.
