Dear Nonyas and Babas who love Peranakan jewellery out there! I'm new to Purse Forum and found this thread by accident when I googled "Peranakan Jewellery". This thread has some very useful information and not simply idle chatter. I'm a Singapore Baba who always felt proud of my Peranakan roots. As I love all things old that qualifies as "Fine Art" (ie artistic, excellent workmanship and scarce), I first bought a few pieces of Peranakan jewellry in the nineties. But I stopped there moving on instead to Chinese antiques and other collectibles before coming back recently to Peranakan jewellery in the last two years.
As this is an old thread, I will appreciate if you could post a reply and thus resurrect this thread. I've just signed up to this Forum so I'm unsure if this thread is still active. There are a few things that I would like to share and also solicit your input on all things Peranakan jewellery!
