Located at the iconic Steward Lane building, the Straits & Oriental Museum ( SO Museum ) is geared to proudly be Penang’s first museum showcasing ancient shipwrecked ceramics from Cathay.
Documenting the splendour of porcelain and its significance to the ancient world. We have managed to secure authentic pieces that were painstakingly recovered from tedious maritime expeditions from well-known wrecks such as the Wanli, Turiang, Royal Nanhai, Nanyang, Xuande and Desaru. The museum will be divided into three sections which we will be discussing in detail.​
Occupying the second floor of the Steward Lane building and also part of the museum will be a conference and seasonal exhibition hall.

The exhibits are unique in that they will be the first of their kind to be on display in a permanent museum in the region.
