This season, Royal Selangor takes us on a captivating journey through art, history, and modern storytelling in their Autumn/Winter 2024 collection. From animal-inspired homeware to iconic character figurines, each piece is designed to elevate your living space and spark conversation.
A highlight is the collaboration with British artist Rachel Gray, who brings her wildlife portraits to life in stunning pewter creations. This “Earth” collection marks Royal Selangor’s first with a female designer and features everything from bottle chillers to coasters, each showcasing Gray’s talent for capturing the essence of animals in the wild.
History buffs will appreciate the pieces inspired by the work of Maria Sibylla Merian, a pioneering artist and scientist. Her detailed studies of the natural world, housed in the British Museum, are translated into beautiful pewter pieces, paying homage to her legacy and challenging societal norms for women in science.
The collection also embraces other themes like mythology and pop-culture. Look out for the “Tigris” collection, a collaboration with VERITAS design firm, celebrating the Malayan tiger through striking geometry. Wine connoisseurs will appreciate the “Helix” line, meticulously crafted accessories inspired by the Archimedes spiral for optimal wine aeration.
Royal Selangor expands its “Ace” collection, incorporating iconic playing card suit designs with Victorian-Edwardian motifs and Wild West flair, adding a touch of excitement to everyday life. Fans of classic literature can explore the “Celestial Odyssey” collection, inspired by the Chinese novel “Journey to the West,” featuring figurines of the Monkey King and his companions.
Don’t miss the stunning “Koi” collection, featuring nine gilded koi across the plate’s surface, a symbol of luck and prosperity in Asian culture.
The collection also offers a sneak peek at the upcoming Year of the Snake zodiac collection for 2025, hinting at a focus on the mystical and spiritual aspects associated with the sign.
For the pop culture enthusiasts, Royal Selangor expands its Marvel and Star Wars collections with new characters and iconic moments immortalized in pewter. Fans of Deadpool and Rocket Raccoon can add these to their collections, while Star Wars aficionados can celebrate the return of the Jedi with figurines featuring Emperor Palpatine, Chewbacca, C-3PO, and R2-D2.
