Traditional Malaysian art is mainly centred on the crafts of carving, weaving, and silversmithing.[23]Traditional art ranges from handwoven baskets from rural areas to the silverwork of the Malay courts. Common artworks included ornamental kris andbeetle nut sets. Luxurious textiles known as Songket are made, as well as traditional patterned batik fabrics. Indigenous East Malaysians are known for their wooden masks. Malaysian art has expanded only recently, as before the 1950s Islamic taboos about drawing people and animals were strong.[24]Textiles such as the batik, songket, pua kumbu, and tekat are used for decorations, often embroidered with a painting or pattern. Traditional Jewelry was made from gold and silver adorned with gems, and in the east leather of beads were used to the same effect.[25
