I found this shop selling Antiques, Collectibles, Souvenirs and Handcrafts from different origins at Central Market in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. The Market which houses several shops with goods for selling as the one shown in the photo, is located at Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock and the pedestrian section of Jalan Hang Kasturi. It was built in 1888 and originally used as a "wet market", while the current Art Deco building was completed in 1937 and is now a landmark for Malaysian culture and heritage. The building was built by the British ruling Malaysia at the time, and it was used as a wet market by the people of Kuala Lumpur up to 1986 when it was converted into one of the significant art spaces in Kuala Lumpur and is a hub of activity all year long, which features artworks by local and foreign artists.
