Vintage Tulu Square Rug in Red and Yellow with Geometric Patterns - Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool and originating from Turkey circa 1950-1960, this 4x4 vintage Tulu rug is an extremely rare piece and the latest addition to Rug & Lilim’s Vintage archives.. On the Design: This vintage Tulu rug is a striking example of minimalist tribal design elevated by bold geometry and saturated, earthy tones. Woven with a thick, plush wool pile characteristic of Tulu craftsmanship, it centers on a radiant hexagonal medallion set against a yellow field. The medallion—rendered in fiery hues of red, pink, and light blue—is bordered with rhythmic zigzag motifs, symbolizing protection and continuity. The entire composition is framed by a vibrant red border, grounded by a slim black outline that sharpens the design’s definition without crowding its open, breathable aesthetic. Both rustic and sophisticated, this Tulu rug has a versatile size, perfect for modern interiors that value warmth, texture, and quiet individuality. Its expressive restraint and organic charm make it equally at home in serene minimalist spaces or bohemian settings. Condition: This vintage Tulu rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin.

On the Design: Tulus are some of the most sought-after high-pile and shag rugs, often mentioned in the same breath as Greek Flokati and Moroccan rugs for their own unique take on a lush, comfortable look and feel. This tribal provenance is a more modern interpretation of Islamic carpets in its take on the Mihrab pattern. Admirers of the craft may admire the chartreuse green underscores a red border and beige open field with the “arch” or “gateway” mihrab rugs...
