This antique Filikli Tulu rug from Konya, approximately 100 years old, showcases the signature long pile of this weaving tradition through a striking vertical composition.
The plush wool pile is arranged in vertical bands running parallel to the length of the rug, creating a strong directional flow. The color palette blends warm and earthy tones—red, brown, orange—balanced with cooler notes of blue and green, resulting in a rich yet harmonious visual rhythm.
The elongated pile gives the rug a soft, almost sculptural quality, while the linear arrangement adds structure and movement. The interplay between color and texture makes this piece both visually dynamic and inviting.
A perfect choice for interiors that embrace warmth, texture, and individuality, this rug works beautifully as a statement accent or layered element.
