Kelingkan

Kelingkan is a delicate traditional Malay embroidery technique that uses fine metallic threads to create shimmering floral and geometric motifs, often on shawls or veils worn during weddings and special occasions. With roots in Melaka and Penang, Kelingkan reflects the finesse and grace of Malay craftsmanship. As part of its mission to preserve Malaysia’s intangible cultural heritage, Yayasan Hasanah is working with artisans and cultural groups to revive this fading art form. Join our workshop to learn the intricate technique of Kelingkan and be part of preserving a piece of our cultural legacy!

Telepuk

Telepuk is a stunning traditional Malay textile art that features intricate gold leaf or metallic motifs pressed onto fabric, once reserved for royalty and special ceremonies. This craft embodies the richness of our cultural heritage. Through its cultural preservation efforts, Yayasan Hasanah is bringing Telepuk back to life, supporting local artisans and ensuring the technique is passed down to future generations. Join our workshop and experience the beauty of Telepuk firsthand. Discover the skill, history, and artistry behind this timeless tradition!
