The word "Tulu" originates from the Turkish term "tüylü," meaning hairy,

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

goats (mohair), adding a touch of comfort to any space.
