Experience the art of pewter casting at the Royal Selangor Visitor Center in Kuala Lumpur with this immersive Foundry Workshop. Over the course of about an hour, you’ll handle hot molten pewter to create a small, personalized item such as a keychain, pendant, or bag charm. Guided by skilled instructors, you can choose to use traditional molds or express your creativity by shaping the pewter freehand, making this a truly hands-on and memorable craft experience.
Before or after your workshop, enjoy access to the Royal Selangor Museum, where you can discover the rich heritage and craftsmanship behind Malaysia’s world-renowned pewter industry. The museum’s exhibits offer fascinating insights into the history, techniques, and artistry of pewter making, enriching your understanding of this unique metalwork.
Your workshop begins with a safety briefing and introduction to the materials at the Visitor Center. Then, you’ll move to the foundry area to melt and pour pewter, carefully crafting your chosen design. At the end of the session, you’ll take home your custom-made pewter item as a special souvenir of your creative journey.
