Vintage tulu rug hand-woven in the second half of the 20th century in Turkey. Tulu is basically a kilim or a plainweave with tufts of wool or goat-hair yarn interwoven using the Turkish knot to form tuft patterns on the underlying design. Tulu is the English pronunciation for the Turkish word, "tüylü" meaning hairy. The technique used for weaving is very similar to "gabbeh" in Iran, "Beni Ourain" rugs of Morrocco and "ryijy" in Finland. All have been produced for functional purposes rather than commercially and in mountainous regions, so they all have thick pile for protection against cold.

All have been produced for functional purposes rather than commercially and in mountainous regions, so they all have thick pile for protection against cold. Their weaving is more coarse so they can be woven faster at home that the sophisticated fine rugs that can only be woven from a pattern in workshops. They mostly had "primitive" designs and used undyed hand-spun wool or few colors.

Verified orderOur go-to source for high quality kilims
We have now had three excellent buying experiences with Kilim.com over a span of two and a half years, so I think we're in a good position to recommend the business in the highest possible terms. Having been to Turkey and shopped for rugs the old-fashioned way, we find there's no contest: buying a kilim on Kilim.com is hands-down the way to go. The ability to search for a rug by size, age, and price is a tremendous advantage. The superb photographs and descriptions are a great aid in visualizing the rug in a new home. And the ease of the transaction can't be beat. See a rug; pay for it online; and, in a few days, the beautiful thing arrives at your doorstep. What could be easier? The staff at Kilim.com, in particular Ida Gurel, couldn't be more helpful or responsive. The email notices about special sales come at just the right intervals to remind us about this very special online store. In short, Kilim.com has become our go-to source for both vintage and modern kilims. Top marks!

Verified orderExcellent Purchase Experience
We were impressed by the website with the huge selection, plus great pictures and tools to see the rug before purchase. At the same time a little concerned buying from an offshore supplier. Our purchase went very smoothly, in fact Kilim double checked with us on color before shipment and then it arrived in just a few days. WAY faster than something ordered the same day stateside. The rug was exactly as described and fits our space perfectly. Very happy with our purchase and would highly recommend.

They provide great service. The rug I received was beautiful but ended up not working out. They helped me return it with detailed instructions and emailed me status updates along the way. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for authentic Turkish rugs.
