Museum of Ethnic Art, Central Market

I was showing friends around KL on the 4th of July when I discovered this Museum of Ethnic Arts by Art House Galery, owned by Leonard Yiu. It is located at the Annexe building of Central Market. One simply has to go all the way to the end of Central Market to end up at this unmistakable point of interest.  As with anything full of character and delightfully intriguing, one angle is never enough of a view.  That's my excuse for this motherload of pictures.  Enjoy.



Borneo Tribal Masks and Totems.























There are all sorts of ethnic artefacts from the Asian region as well.

Interesting and wearable earpieces.




All kind of beadworks.

Keris collections.

Leonard and Me.



Centuries old sape.

Care to cover your penis with these?


Quite touchable...
