Held from 1 to 14 October 2024, the exhibition at Le Lumiere’s flagship store at The Exchange TRX offers a one-of-a-kind journey where the worlds of jewellery and art converge.
Visitors have the rare opportunity to see masterpieces from legendary Malaysian artists such as Datuk Ibrahim Hussein, Awang Damit Ahmad, and Khalil Ibrahim, each piece meticulously curated by HBAA to reflect Malaysia’s rich artistic heritage.

At the opening ceremony on 2nd October, Datuk Ng Yih Pyng, Managing Director of Tomei Consolidated, articulated the profound synergy between the two industries: “This collaboration embodies a shared vision: the belief that while our industries – jewellery and art – each possess their unique appeal,’ Datuk Ng noted, ‘together they create an experience that is richer and more profound.’ Indeed, this collaboration deepens the connection between craftsmanship and storytelling, enriching the luxury market with layers of meaning and artistic expression.

In line with the event’s artistic spirit, Sim Polenn, Director of HBAA, delivered an insightful talk titled ‘Appreciate Art, Art Appreciates’. His insights into the nuances of the Malaysian art market and the elements that drive the value of these pieces offered a fresh perspective to experienced collectors and newcomers alike. For attendees, it was an opportunity not only to appreciate art but also to see it as a lasting investment — one that tells a story, carries heritage, and adds immeasurable depth to their collections.
