The dyes used in Turkish carpets and rugs are usually derived from natural sources. Turks have a deep-rooted tradition of natural dyeing and the foundations of this tradition were laid in Central Asia with the birth of carpet art. The Turks, who moved to Anatolia as a result of migrations, continued the tradition of natural dyeing by taking advantage of the rich vegetation of Anatolia.

The preparation of natural dyes usually requires a long and painstaking process. The dyestuffs obtained by collecting, drying, crushing and mixing the plants with water or other binding agents are applied to the yarns of carpets and rugs.

These natural dyes create the unique color palette of Turkish carpets and rugs and reveal the unique character of each piece.
