Summary/Abstract: The art of weaving, which is one of our cultural values, is a value that has been going on for centuries. As in most regions of Anatolia, many regions of our country are very developed in terms of weaving art and have officially documented the art products belonging to their own region by taking geographical indications. When the history of the Turks is examined, we can say that they have a very rich art culture and that it has developed depending on their creativity in the time period from the past to the present. Weaving samples that have survived to the present day are our cultural values, which are the most beautiful documents that show our cultural richness. Tülü weaving samples are also very common in weaving art. However, there are not many examples of tulle weaving in and around Aksaray. Today, there are examples of tulle woven for commercial purposes in Aksaray. These weaving samples are made through weaving companies that solve both the production and the market problem of weaving. As the subject of the study, tülü weaving samples woven in Aksaray today, the general condition of the weavings, their raw materials and usage purposes have been researched and the information obtained has been included in the study with written and visuals.
