About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool and originating from Turkey circa 1950-1960, this 5x7 vintage Tulu rug is an intriguing and rich piece among the latest additions to Rug Kilim’s collection—a unique design from a series inspired by Bessarbian rugs of Moldovan provenance, seldom seen in this lush high pile. 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. The central medallion employs a floral arrangement rendered against sage green grounds. The surrounding areas of the medallion features vines and florals creating a perfect botanical background that draws the eye towards the central medallion. This systematic arrangement demonstrates the Turkish adaptation of European carpet design principles filtered through village sensibilities. The color palette achieves remarkable harmony through earth-tone foundations—sage green, warm coral, pink, blue, deep forest, golden amber—creating relationships that speak to both European botanical traditions and Turkish color sensibilities. This piece represents the mature phase of Turkish village weaving where technical mastery enabled complex European-inspired designs while maintaining distinctively Anatolian character. The floral sophistication makes it particularly suited for formal reception rooms or master bedrooms where its botanical charm creates a welcoming atmosphere while maintaining the cultural authenticity essential to luxury residential contexts.
