A Malaysian gold jewellery manufacturer since 1984.

For over forty years, TKC Aurum has designed and manufactured gold jewellery for gold retailers across Malaysia. We make for the trade, not for the public: the chains, bangles and pendants that fill the counters of the gold shops we supply.

From one workbench to a full production floor.

TKC Aurum is a family of goldsmiths, machinists and finishers. The tools have changed since 1984. The standard has not.

Sheet 01 · Our story

Plate 01 — The stamping press that started the workshop in 1984.

TKC Aurum began in 1984 as a small workshop with a stamping press, a workbench and a handful of goldsmiths. From the first day the work was for the trade: gold chains, bangles and pendants made for the gold shops that sell them to their customers.

As orders grew, so did the workshop. Polishing lines came first, then casting, then precision machining. Each new process was brought in for one reason: to make every piece more consistent than the last, so a retailer's repeat order matches the first.

Today we design, customise and manufacture gold jewellery in-house, from heavy solid chains and 3D pendants to cast bangles and exhibition pieces. Gold retailers across Malaysia rely on us as their manufacturer and wholesale gold jewellery supplier, and many have worked with us for decades.

Heritage, contemporary, precise.

Our name, Aurum, is Latin for gold and means "shining dawn". It reflects how we work: traditional craftsmanship carried forward with contemporary design and the precision of modern manufacturing. Purely precise is not a slogan to us; it is the standard every piece is checked against.

Over forty years at the bench.

What we hold to.

Five values guide how we design, make and supply. They are why gold shops trust us with their counters.

Integrity of material

We treat gold with the respect it deserves. What a retailer orders is what a retailer receives, in weight, in finish and in detail.

Continuity of craft

Techniques learnt at the bench in the 1980s still shape how we cast, chase and finish today, and they are passed on to every new goldsmith.

Purposeful innovation

We bring in new machines and methods where they make pieces more consistent and better made, never only faster.

Market awareness

We design with the counter in mind: the styles customers ask for, at weights a gold shop can sell with confidence.

Enduring trust

Our business is built on long relationships with the gold retailers we supply, order after order and year after year.

Sheet 03 · Our values

Everything under one roof.

From the first sketch to the final check, every stage of manufacturing happens in our own workshop. That is how we keep quality, lead times and repeat orders under control.

Design and customisation

New designs and custom pieces developed with retailers, from a sketch, a photo or a customer's request.

Casting

Bangles, pendants and relief work cast in gold, then chased and refined by hand.

Chain making and machining

Solid and hollow chains formed and cut on precision machines for even links and consistent weight.

Hand finishing

Filing, soldering, polishing and engraving at the bench, where the final character of each piece is set.

Quality checking

Every piece is inspected for weight, finish and fastening before it is packed for the retailer.

Work with a manufacturer, not a middleman.
