Then we went to tour the show room. Selberan is a subsidiary of Royal Selangor which manufactures jewelry. I started my career here before I was transferred to the head office of Royal Selangor.

There is a hands on class which teaches kids how to make a pewter plate from scratch. It’s about RM60 per class if I remembered correctly. You get to bring home the plate you make.
