Art House Gallery Museum of Ethnic Arts — Attraction in Kuala Lumpur

Beautiful original ethnic pieces!

I knew this would be a museum and shop, but did not know that it would be sooo nice. It is not very large but I spent several hours here watching the unique pieces and talking to the lovely owner, collector, Indiana Jones of today - Leonard Yiu. He is so nice, and happy to tell the story of the different pieces. There are all sorts of magical trinkets, shaman stafs, protective neck pieces, face masks, carved sculls, beautiful fabrics and more.

About half of the stuff is for sale and half belongs to Mr Yiu's private collection/museum. There is no entrance fee, and I was not allowed to give him any money even after taking up so much of his time. So if you're on a budget, don't worry.

If you like this kind of stuff I strongly recommend going!

Wow! Art House Gallery can be listed as the best antique shop cum art gallery in town. The antique items are very fine collections from all over the south East Asia region.

As i know, the director is an adventurer himself.He has made numerous trips oversea especially to the remote area of Indonesia,eg,Sumba Island, Bali and Kalimantan island as well.He is also keeping some fine tribal art as his own collection.As i learned, his highest ambition is to set up an Ethnic Muzium which house the most original tribal arts and artifact from the above area mentioned in time to come.It is a pleasure to see that at present, he has a mini tribal collection in his gallery already. Very precious and encouraging indeed!
