Contemporary Turkish Tulu Kilim.'Hand woven with'Angora wool on wool kilim foundation'in the Konya region of central Turkey. Tulu, loosely translates to'"Hairy",'are hand'knotted'with lustrous and soft'Angora hair'on wool handwoven kilims. Nomadic tribes making their way through central Asia used Tulus as blankets to keep warm during the winter freeze on the high plains of the Anatolian plateau,'and as mattresses to provide warmth and comfort. Today, with their saturated colors and bold geometric designs, these tribal works of art have become a must have as an accent piece in a contemporary setting.
