Today, the rapid growth in technology, industrialization, the use of internet and the increase in exports have affected the production and promotion of the folkloric trinket dolls that reflect the characteristics of various cultures. Folkloric trinket dolls are important in the sense of introducing Turkish culture in the national and international platforms. The main goal of this study is to determine the materials, the types of clothing, model specialties and the types of accessories that are used in the making of folkloric trinket dolls since it is important to use Turkish clothing culture in the toys industry and hand it down the coming generations. This study was designed as a survey model. The sample included four folkloric trinket dolls which were made for touristic purposes and obtained from Antalya in Turkey. Observation sheets were used to collect the research data. The materials, the types of clothing, model specialties and the types of accessories used in the making of folkloric trinket dolls were determined with the observation sheets. The present study is considered significant for the introduction of Turkish culture. Based on the findings from the observation sheets, recommendations were offered for making dolls that have cultural characteristics.
