Weaving art, an important branch of traditional handicrafts, is one of the oldest works of human beings in the historical process. Weaving, which is a cultural value, is a socio-cultural element that develops in connection with the socio-economic conditions of the societies in which they are produced and sustains its continuity throughout generations. Weavings differ from region to region by factors such as climatic conditions, flora, easy and economical acquisition of raw materials. Weavings showing locally diversified textures in the traditional structure reflect the rich spiritual inner worlds of people, their characteristic structures, their vision of world, and their aesthetic conceptions. Weaving art, coming forward with a uniqueand sometimes with the common features of Anatolia, has rich samples. This situation also finds a place for itself in the weavings made in the Azerbaijani region. Among the textile handicrafts, Azerbaijani weaving samples, which have a privileged place with aesthetic, perception color, motif and composition harmony, are also present in various institutions and organizations as it is in the museum today. In this work titled "Kilim Weavings of the Azerbaijani Region in the Georgian National Museum", a sample of 10 rugs in the Georgian National Museum was examined. Samples were handled in catalog order and tried to be introduced in terms of kind, material, color, size, pattern and composition. The rug weavings examined are important in terms of reflecting the characteristics of the Azerbaijani region.
