Introducing Turkish Tulu Rugs: Experience the Elegance of Shaggy Luxury

Step into the world of Turkish Tulu rugs, where timeless tradition meets luxurious comfort. These remarkable rugs have adorned chateaus, enchanted tales, and embraced generations with their unmatched beauty. The word "Tulu" originates from the Turkish term "tüylü," meaning hairy, and rightfully so, as these rugs are renowned for their long-piled, wool textures woven with large knots.

Turkish Tulu Rug History and Heritage

Delve into the history of Turkish Tulu rugs, where craftsmanship meets culture. These masterpieces have a storied past dating back at least a century, originating from a village that faced harsh winters and hot summers in the mountainous region near Karapinar, east of Konya, Turkey. To brave the cold, the skilled artisans of this region began weaving Tulu rugs using undyed hand-spun wool or a limited color palette, resulting in unique and "primitive" designs.

Turkish Quality and Materials

Turkish Tulu rugs are a testament to unparalleled craftsmanship. Handwoven with precision and care, these natural shag rugs are made from premium materials such as wool, cotton, camel hair, or even silk, ensuring they stand the test of time. For those seeking the epitome of cozy, "Filikli" Tulu rugs feature the lustrous, curly hair of Angora goats (mohair), adding a touch of comfort to any space.
