Mini Story

This early Selangor Pewter hip flask dates to the pre-Royal Selangor era, when the company produced understated, utilitarian pieces focused on quality craftsmanship rather than branding. The absence of any logo, combined with the plain Selangor Pewter stamp and original cork-lined lid, places this example firmly in the mid-1960s to late 1970s period.

A simple, honest design with a solid feel in the hand — a great example of early Southeast Asian pewter barware and a desirable piece for collectors seeking earlier Selangor production.
