Tulu Rugs as Icons of Raw Luxury: Folk Art Meets Modern Fashion
A Tulu rug emerges as a textile heirloom reimagined for royalty. The Evolution of the Tulu Rug Once woven to shield nomadic families from the brutal Anatolian winters, Tulu rugs were never meant to be seen — they were meant to be felt. Thick, long-pile, and spun from the softest Angora wool, these rugs served as primitive insulation, hand-crafted by Turkish tribes whose artistry was born from necessity. But in today’s most discerning interiors, what was once survival is now sovereignty. Tulu — from the Turkish word tüylü, meaning "hairy" or "shaggy" — has found its place in contemporary design. From Parisian ateliers to Brooklyn brownstones, from Brutalist galleries to Baroque revivalist townhouses, Tulu rugs are now the grounding force of aesthetic storytelling. No longer relegated to ethnographic obscurity, they’ve been recontextualized as objets d’art — the missing link between primal craftsmanship and couture design.

Ege Rya Rugs & Verner Panton’s Abstract Modernist Style
Ege Ryas are an important part of Scandinavian design. Like the Rya rugs of the 15th century, Ege ryas carry a high pile. This was mainly to keep people warm during the hostile cold weather. These rugs were usually small in size and machine made. While the vintage ege ryas were quite similar to other Nordic rugs in their shag/high pile texture, it’s interesting to note that their patterns were funky - unlike the clean, soothing, refreshing vibe that most Scandinavian rugs feature. This union of traditional texture and bold patterns redefined Swedish aesthetics in the mid 20th century and became a driving force behind most modern sense of abstract that we know today.

A Love Letter to High-Pile Rugs: Shag, Shabby-Chic and Everything In-Between
A Shag/High Pile rug is easy to recognize. That's one of many beauties in both styles; their distinction from other rugs. There's a subtle difference between the terms, though, and the many gorgeous styles they comprise. High-pile rugs include any rug with a 1/2"-3/4" pile height (which measures the fibers on the rug's surface, or "nap"). Shag rugs, meanwhile, have similar or longer fibers, and in some cases their pile goes beyond the borders. It's much easier to see the difference and admire it, though, as it's more about the feeling and presence that dictates the difference. Many in our field believe shag rugs are the oldest hand-knotted rugs and carpets. Thick rugs were a notable source of bedding and comfort in tribal cultures all over the world, after all. Greek Flokati rugs are the oldest shag rug known (as early as 700 B.C.), and were made from goat hair for warmth. Moroccan rugs are a younger provenance since the Berber matriarchs began the practice circa 622 A.D., but they're one of the most widely recognized high-pile rug styles today.

High-and-Low Rugs and Kilims: A Brief Style Guide
Our high-and-low Kilim in a bedroom by Yellow House Architects. Photo courtesy of YHA. Some say that high-and-low rugs are having a moment, but not us. That would imply they were ever out of style, or anything less than fabulous and full of possibilities. Our "Textural/High Low" classification includes any rug and flat weave with notable variations in pile height and texture. The idea is as simple as knowing the right pile height for one's space is essential. Still, we understand better than most the shear variety of techniques that create the effect, and the similar range of moods they can evoke from style to style.

A Glossary of Handmade Rugs and Kilims: Understanding Terms, Types and Techniques Past and Present
Referring to the art style characterized by using shape and color withdrawn from traditional repetition or realism. Abstract rugs — sometimes referred to as art rugs — capture an expressive nature that reads as a very modern style, though many abstract rugs draw inspiration from works of the same art style in the mid-century. One of the more widely known mid-century lineages of this style is abstract expressionism, named for the literal "expressionists" of the 1950s. Some of the most notable names behind this style include Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. Referring to a lineage of nomadic Persian rugs (sometimes referred to as “Avsar” in the alternate spelling). Afshar rugs hail from the eponymous tribe in the region of Northeastern Iran.
