2.5x4 Vintage Distressed Tulu Rug in pale dusty blue, mauve, and silver tones with botanical motif

Soft geometry, quiet soul

A small vintage Tulu with hushed tiers of mint, mauve, and powder-blue fading into platinum ground—like afternoon light settling on old stone.

Found calm

2.5x4 Vintage Distressed Tulu Rug

Worn with intention

Rooms often need a gentle anchor that doesn’t shout for attention. The 2.5x4 Vintage Distressed Tulu Rug brings tone-on-tone calm with a multi-level germinating plant motif and softened pastels. Its even wear and faint foundation peeking through lend an authentic, lived-in character that new textiles can’t imitate.

Light underfoot

At 2'7" x 3'10", the scale slips easily beside a bed, under a reading chair, or at a studio doorway. Subtle color—platinum, silver, dusty mauve, pale powder blue—plays well with wood, stone, and painted floors. Professionally cleaned and with sides and ends secured, it’s ready to lay down and live with.

For the collector at home

Someone who favors hushed color, hand-knotted vintage character, and small-scale rugs that bring warmth to everyday thresholds.

Where it lives

Layer at a bedside, frame a desk chair, or warm the entry just inside the door.
