About KULA RUGS( Reference: Brittanica) Kula carpet, Kula also spelled Koula or Kulah, floor covering handwoven in Kula, in the region of Aegean sea in western Turkey. Kula rugs were produced throughout the 19th century and into the 20th and have been favorites among collectors. Central motifs are sometimes highly elaborate. The Early Kula rugs have strong reds and good blues; but the dyeing practices rapidly became slack, so that in most later examples the red has been exchanged for an assortment of muddy brown and yellow shades, often combined with a good surviving blue. Early carpets are not as finely woven as Ghiordes carpets, and late ones are quite loosely made. Additional types were produced, such as the Kumurju Kulas, usually dark-field carpets that often reproduce the designs of Transylvanian rugs, with prominent vases and yellow borders. Like other great carpet-weaving centers in Turkey, Kula produced many crudely woven carpets for the European market in the late 19th century. Condition: Good condition for its age. Full pile.

What we mean by this is that every hand knotted Oriental rug has a "light" side and a "dark" side.The color entirely depends on how you view the rugs’ nape. The shade intensity from one end of the rug may be very different from what you see on the opposite end— this depends on whether one looks directly into the nape or with the nape. Handmade rugs have a consistency and a shine, which may affect the rug’s color. The colors of a rug will appear either several shades lighter or darker depending on where the viewer is standing in relation to the rug. FREE SHIPPING: U.S.A. ONLYUPS,USPS FED-EX or Freight Co.
