THE PERANAKAN JEWELLERY

Peranakan Jewellery is fascinating and mesmerizing, embracing the cultures and history surrounding it. Chinese, Malay and Indo-European form, design and motifs are featured in the jewellery, sometimes all of these in one singular piece. Jewellery, worn and loved by the Peranakan Chinese Nyonya women are usually fashioned using diamonds, intan, rubies, sapphires, pearls and

jade. The halcyon days of Peranakan jewellery is surrounded by beauty and wealth. Individual pieces are skillfully crafted to highlight the beauty of the design, and enhancing the comeliness of the nyonya. It gives as much pleasure to the owner as serving to delight the audience. The jewel collection of the nyonya also reflects on her family’s wealth and status. The timeless beauty of these exquisite, rare and treasured pieces, each item with its own secrets and story, is once again paraded in all its extravagance at the Straits Chinese Jewellery Museum.
