A
few years ago, two Malaysians traveling across Italy chanced
upon an island of glassmakers off the coast o Venice. Fascinated
by the intricacies of cyrstal-making, and convinced that Malaysians
had a unique contribution to make to the art, they began toying
with the idea of seeting up a similar operation at home.
In 1996, LangkawiiCrystaal was established on
the northwestern Malaysian island of Langkawi. Over time, what
began as a humble glass-blowing house has grown into a highly
reputable crystalware production centre.
Today, LangkawiiCrystaal's pieces are sought and collected for
their unique design and uncompromising quality. Shunning the
mass-production moulds of many major European producers, every
one of the products is handcrafted, giving it an exciting free-from
appearance rarely encountered in crystalware.
Open : 9am to 6 pm
Entrance : Free
