Being in various colours and patterns and in addition to having been used especially in the artefacts of Sinan the Architect for structural purposes, stone, which is an important material of Ottoman architecture of the 16th century, has been a fundamental material in terms of its ornamental use. Through this study, the stone elements of Rüstem Paşa Mosque, which is one of the artefacts of Sinan the Architect, have been examined and characteristic features of the period on stone ornaments have been revealed. First, the stones, which had been used, were identified, then, the dispersion of stone ornaments, which shows improvement under the influence of architecture, of the artefact was specified, and patterns and techniques of ornaments have been examined. When we take a look at the fields of use for the stone ornaments in Rüstem Paşa Mosque, we see that these stone ornaments are used on mihrab, minbar,mahfils, arches, columns, bases and capital of columns, jambs of windows and doors, Inscriptions, mihrabiyes, coverings, rosettes, shadirvan, and minaret. Traditionally used ornamentation techniques on stone ornaments are relief, engraving, latticework, inserting, and dressing. Within the ornaments of this artefact, many colourful stone ornaments, which were formed with the use of spoli materials, geometric ornaments, floral ornaments, calligraphies, and ornaments formed with architectural forms are present.
