Authentic Vintage Turkish Karapınar Tülü Rug
This is a stunning, authentic hand-knotted Karapınar Tülü from the Central Anatolia region (Konya), dating back approximately 60 years (circa 1960s). Known for their long pile and artistic tribal designs, Tülü rugs were traditionally used by nomadic herders for warmth, but today they are highly sought-after decorative "folk art" pieces.
Origin: Konya, Karapınar (Anatolia, Turkey)
Type: Tülü (Long pile, shaggy tribal rug)
Size: 34" x 44" inches (86 x 111 cm)

This specific Tülü is a collector’s item. While it is durable enough to be used on the floor (ideal for a bedroom or a cozy corner), its artistic value makes it perfect for a wall hanging display. The unique "human-like" or "totem" motifs are characteristic of the Karapınar region and carry deep cultural symbolism.
