About TIMURA

TIMURA specialises in authentic local gifts and supports Malaysian brands and independent artisans. The shelves carry a curated selection of handcrafted products — art prints, locally made accessories, natural skincare, small-batch food items and unique home goods, all sourced from Malaysian makers. It feels more like a gallery shop than a souvenir store.

Prices range from RM15 for smaller items to RM80 for larger craft pieces. The shop is designed for people who want to bring home something with a story behind it, rather than a mass-produced magnet. Staff are knowledgeable about the makers and the products, so ask if you want background on a particular item. TIMURA is a good complement to Loka Made — both champion local design, but TIMURA leans more toward artisan goods and home items while Loka Made focuses on stationery and illustration.

    TIMURA in the heritage zone sells beautifully crafted Malaysian-made accessories. The batik clutch bags (RM45) and woven rattan earrings (RM20) are stunning. Each piece feels artisanal and comes with a small card about the maker.

    Higher-end souvenir shop with emphasis on ethical and sustainable products. The songket-inspired scarves (RM60) and handmade pottery (RM30-80) are beautiful. Prices reflect the craftsmanship — RM15-80 range. Worth browsing.

    Found unique gifts here that you cannot get anywhere else. The hand-carved wooden combs (RM25) and batik notebook covers (RM30) were highlights. The shop is small but every item is carefully selected. Open daily 10 am to 6 pm.

    The pewter jewellery here is handmade by local artisans and each piece is one-of-a-kind. I bought a pair of earrings (RM35) and a brooch (RM28). The packaging includes a story about the artisan, which adds a personal touch.

    Curated store with a good eye for design. The Malaysian-made leather goods are excellent quality. We bought a hand-stitched card holder (RM40) and a set of wooden chopsticks (RM22). Pricier than market stalls but much better quality.
