Founded in 1885, Royal Selangor is perhaps one of the most well-known names in pewter. Presently, the company offers over a thousand different tableware and gift items, from traditional tankards and elegant tea sets, to captivating photo frames and handsome desk accessories.
Pewter offers a lifetime of pleasure and beauty. Over time and with use, pewter develops a pleasing subdued tone unique to the metal. However, the distinguished Royal Selangor finish can be maintained with these simple cleaning tips.
Satin Finish
- Wash in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly
- Dry immediately with a soft cloth
- Always wipe satin-finish pieces along its polish lines
Brilliant Finish
- Polish as silver, with a good brand of silver polish and a soft flannel
Antique Finish
- Wash in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly
- Dry immediately with a soft cloth
Wood and Pewter
- Do not soak in water
- Avoid strong detergents, which can penetrate and damage wood
- Wipe with a damp cloth, and dry immediately
- An occasional application of linseed or olive oil to the wood improves its lustre
24K Gold-plated Pewter
- Wash in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly
- Dry immediately with a soft cloth
- Do not use metal polish, as this will dull the gold
Worth Noting

- If you live by the sea, atmospheric salts can dull pewter's lustre. Wipe occasionally with a damp cloth

At the allocated time, (for us it was 12.30 pm), we rushed to the waiting area because we didn't want to be late.
There we handed over our precious tickets and in return, we were given coloured ID tags to wear around our necks. The tags are colour coded according to the specific Tour group: Yellow, Black, Green, etc.
There is a comfortable waiting room where a 15 minute video presentation about the Twin Towers (history, architecture, etc) will be shown before your tour is called. Listen for the announcement. Once your colour is called, queue up to get your things scanned before walking through a scanner yourself (like at the airport). If you have large bags, the staff here will thoughtfully store it away for you.
Next, get into the lift which takes you to the 44th floor of the twin towers. Here you will be greeted by a sign in black and green.
WELCOME TO THE SKYBRIDGE. You are now 170 meters above street level.
