Its large size and versatile nature make it a distinctive statement piece for design lovers and collectors alike.

This one-of-a-kind textile blends rustic charm with boho sophistication. Woven in the 1960s in Central Anatolia, it was likely created as a curtain, which explains its unusually large dimensions for a Tulu.

Perfect for daily use in living spaces or as a captivating wall decor, it brings depth, warmth, and cultural authenticity into any interior.

What Is a Turkish Kilim?
Origins — Kilims are traditional flat-woven textiles from Anatolia, the historic heartland of weaving culture. For centuries, they have been created by nomadic and village weavers using simple looms, often for domestic use or dowry purposes. Their designs reflect the geography, beliefs, and daily life of their makers.
Symbolism — Beyond their decorative appeal, kilims are symbolic narratives woven into fabric. Common motifs include fertility symbols, protective charms, and expressions of love or continuity. In many Anatolian households, they served as more than floor coverings — they were cultural texts passed down through generations.
Weaving Technique — Unlike pile rugs, kilims are flat-woven using warp and weft threads tightly interlaced to form intricate geometric patterns. Some variants, like this Tulu example, incorporate angora mohair tufts, adding texture and depth while retaining the lightweight flexibility of a kilim. Vegetable-dyed yarns further enrich the textile with natural, enduring color.
Modern Relevance — Today, Turkish kilims bridge the gap between heritage and contemporary design. Their versatility — functioning as floor coverings, wall art, bedspreads, or table textiles — makes them a favorite among interior designers seeking authenticity and character. A well-preserved vintage kilim is not just décor but a piece of living history that continues to tell its story See less
