Royal Selangor Pewter Gallery
Kuala Lumpur is not only famous for its tin mining industry but also renowned worldwide for its pewterware. Among the many brands, the most prestigious is Royal Selangor. Representing the pinnacle of pewter craftsmanship, the brand was founded by Yoon Koon in 1885 and has a history of over 130 years. The pewter products produced here are not only everyday household items, but many have also become exquisitely designed works of art, sold in over twenty countries. Therefore, when visiting Kuala Lumpur, the Royal Selangor Pewter Gallery has become a must-see attraction.
The Pewter Gallery opened in 2004. As you approach the entrance, the first thing that catches your eye is the massive giant pewter tankard standing there—currently the world’s largest pewter cup, which has been listed in the Guinness World Records. Inside the gallery, museum-style displays showcase nearly a century of Royal Selangor’s development, passed down through generations, gradually forming the brand’s historical legacy and rich cultural heritage. The modern and spacious interior design highlights pewter artworks, with an dazzling array of pewter products on display. These items vary in style and size, featuring shiny, intricately carved and finely crafted pieces that leave visitors in awe.
