FAQs

Tulu rugs are traditional, long-pile handwoven carpets crafted by nomadic and village weavers in the Konya region of central Anatolia, historically made for domestic use rather than export.

Authentic pieces are woven using hand-spun sheeps wool or mohair yarn, often featuring a loose, thick pile made from coarse fleece, combined with natural vegetable dyes for the colour palette.

Authenticity is assessed through the organic irregularity of the weave, hand-spun wool characteristics, traditional earthy or saturated vegetable dye variations, and authentic wear patterns consistent with age.

These textured textiles work effectively as statement floor pieces in minimalist or contemporary spaces, adding warmth, tactile contrast, and graphic geometric interest to hardwood floors.

Preservation requires gentle, regular suction vacuuming without beater bars, professional specialist cleaning when necessary, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect natural dyes.
