Vintage Turkish Tulu Rug, 3.5 x 4.9 ft, 107 x 150 cm, Hand-Knotted Wool Shag Rug, Green and Pink Tribal Carpet

This distinctive vintage Turkish Tulu rug features a bold central green field surrounded by a deep brown border filled with stylized floral and tribal motifs. Vivid pink, blue, cream, and green accents create a lively contrast, giving the rug a playful folk-art character.

Handmade in Turkey approximately 60 years ago, this one-of-a-kind rug was crafted from natural wool and colored with traditional natural root dyes. Its softly textured pile, handmade irregularities, and expressive color combinations reflect the individuality of traditional Anatolian village weaving.

The rectangular green center is framed by repeating floral forms and small geometric details. Bright pink accents give the composition a contemporary energy, while the dark brown background creates depth and balance.

What Is a Tulu Rug?

A Tulu rug is a traditional Turkish pile rug known for its thick, tactile, and slightly shaggy wool surface. These rugs were historically woven in Anatolian villages to provide warmth and comfort during colder seasons.

Unlike flatwoven kilims, Tulu rugs have a raised wool pile that creates a soft, dimensional texture. Their bold colors, simplified motifs, and spontaneous designs often give them a surprisingly modern appearance, making vintage Tulu rugs highly decorative and collectible.

Its compact size makes this rug suitable for a bedside area, reading corner, entryway, nursery, small bedroom, or layered living space. It may also be displayed as decorative textile art on a wall.

As an authentic handmade vintage rug, it may show slight variations in shape, pile, color, and texture, together with natural signs of age and previous use. These characteristics are part of its history and enhance its unique handmade charm.
