Aw Pottery Studio was founded by the late Mr. Aw Eng-Kwang in mid-1940. The studio had a humble beginning making latex cups for the rubber industry, and later developed into a famous art center.
Eng-Kwang’s talent had never been recognized until he joined the First Sculpture Exhibition in Singapore in 1967 and a solo sculpture show in Kuala Lumpur in 1968. Eng-Kwang’s natural creativity and magical handwork of arts led to the success of Aw Pottery.
Aw Pottery lampstands and shades were widely used by major international hotels in Singapore and Malaysia. The Aw family’s pottery studio flourished into a popular tourist attraction in Machap, Malaysia, and it became a must-visit for locals and overseas visitors.
One of the highlights is their beautiful toilet and their place is completely huge. It is believed and said that it is one of the beautiful toilet in town. The toilet’s inner and outer wall, is decorated with ceramics. Really unique.
In here they have all sorts of pottery and one can actually purchase them. The price comes simply affordable. And for those who are fans of pottery and gardening, you can purchase various types of pots at affordable price too.
Asides from that, one can actually learn how to make your own pottery and clay products there too.
