Book Title: A Peranakan Legacy Pb

By Author(s):PETER WEE
By Publisher:MARSHALL CAVENDISH
Format:PB

Exquisite pieces of embroidered clothing, stunning gold and silver jewellery, pretty porcelain artefacts and unusual items of daily living chronicle the rich heritage of the Peranakans or Straits Chinese–a people whose unique culture is an amalgamation of Eastern and Western influences: Chinese, Malay, Indian, Indonesian, Portuguese, Dutch and British. This book captures through lavish, full-colour photographs the Peranakans’ strong sense of customs and etiquette and introduces readers to their way of life.
