Description:
Malaysia’s cultural treasures are up for grabs! An elegant pewter framed art of a Kadazan ancestral musical instrument called Sompoton from the indigenous Dusun tribe of Sabah and a traditional top called Gasing – popular game in the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Both items exclusively crafted from fine polished pewter accentuated with 24K gold plating. This is coupled with a set of classy bronze bookends of men performing Silat – centuries old armed style of martial art that has stood the test of time and predominantly practised among the Malays.
