9 x 13 Colorful Turkish Tulu Shag Rug 51872

51872 New Colorful Tulu Shag Rug Inspired by Sonia Delaunay 09'01 x 12'10.

A bold reverie in wool and color, this Turkish Tulu shag rug is a radiant fusion of ancestral craft and avant-garde vision. Hand-knotted from silky Angora wool, its lush pile invites both touch and contemplation, offering the warmth of Anatolian highlands reimagined through the prism of modernist abstraction. Though born of tribal hands, the design seems to echo the daring spirit of Sonia Delaunay—an artist who danced with geometry, rhythm, and chromatic joy.

The Tulu rug’s swirling lozenges and kaleidoscopic forms pulse with kinetic energy, evoking Delaunay’s synesthetic sensibilities—her belief that color could sing, that shape could move. Raspberry pink collide with midnight ink blue, cream, slate, sky blue, and mauve in an orchestrated chaos that feels both intuitive and composed. This is no static floor covering but a painted composition in pile, where every curve and jagged line hums with expressive power and improvisational grace.

Despite its contemporary visual language, the piece remains rooted in its Turkish Tulu heritage. The abstracted diamond forms and amorphous shapes are echoes of tribal motifs—symbols of protection, continuity, and connection—filtered here through a new, almost cosmopolitan lens. This colorful Tulu rug speaks not only of the weaver’s lineage but of her imagination, her response to color as emotion and pattern as poetry. It is as if a village loom met a Paris salon, and together they dreamed in wool.

To place this Turkish Tulu rug in a room is to set the stage for dialogue—between old and new, East and West, intuition and intellect. It brings a radiant, living presence to interiors, transcending trend and tradition alike. For the collector, the curator, or the dreamer, this Tulu is more than a decorative object—it is a woven ode to innovation, a tactile tribute to the artistry of both heritage and modernism, pulsing quietly beneath your feet.
