Because of the Islamic influence, Turkish art is specialized in different branches of art. Drawing a figure was forbidden and it forced artist to use only floral and geometrical motifs. These motifs, patterns applied as a painting, carving, weaving, inlaying, filigreeing or embroidering. But there are other branches that lesser known such as book binding, jewel crafting, copper-making, calligraphy and Ebru (marbeling). During your tours you will see or try to do some of them but if you have special interest to any of them, we can make your own Turkish Art tour about desired branch.
