Mert Aslan

Weaving, done properly

  • 🇹🇷 Üsküdar, Istanbul, Türkiye
  • Queensway Workshop
  • 1985 to 1993
  • English, Turkish
I've worked in weaving from 1985 to 1993. I learned from my grandmother and passed what I could on to 430 apprentices. Apprentices come in nervous and leave proud. That's my favorite part. I like to keep things simple and honest.

More about Mert

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.

Crafts and trades

What gifts mean to Mert: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
