SilverKris is named after the kris, a Malay weapon used in the 14th century. Legend has it that the kris possessed many qualities, the greatest of which was its ability to anticipate danger and protect its owner. For these reasons, the kris was treated with the utmost respect and often passed down as a family heirloom. Today, its function is purely ceremonial. Singapore Airlines chose a kris made of silver as the symbol of their service, acknowledging both the quality and reputation of Malay silverware, and the airlines’ roots in Malayan Airways, which began in 1947.
