Abstract

This study determines the traditional Malay motifs design that was discovered in the jewellery artefact collections from the National Museum Kuala Lumpur. The visit and support with the observation of the jewellery collection assisted in the process of digital compilation. Then the categorisation of types of jewellery was then divided into three categories of traditional accessories. The identification of motifs clearly showed how the formation of flora, fauna, abstract, cosmos and geometric characters was used and developed. This compilation of this study significantly sustains the tradition of this unique traditional precious metal heritage towards the contemporary design sources for future.
