Who The Peranakans Are
The Peranakan Chinese, also known as Straits-born Chinese, are descendants of Chinese traders who settled in Malacca & around the coastal areas of Java & Sumatra as early as the 14th century & married local women. In the 19th century, the Peranakan Chinese, drawn by commerce, migrated to the bustling ports of Penang & Singapore. Theirs was a unique hybrid culture, which is still an integral part of Singapore's heritage.

Peranakan Porcelain
Porcelain is an important part of the Peranakan or Nyonya household. Most of these wares have intricate motifs of flowers, butterflies & phoenixes in bright yellow or rose-pink, unlike typical Chinese porcelain. Most of these porcelain pieces have become collectors’ items.
