Description
Experience the complex hybrid world of the Peranakans - a unique culture forged between the Chinese, Malay and European worlds. The Peranakan Legacy showcases the rich material heritage of the Peranakans from the Straits Settlements and the Indonesian Archipelago. Visitors will find dedicated displays of the textile, beading, silverwork, porcelain, betel-chewing and jewellery traditions of the Peranakans. Among the highlights will be a display of the museum's renowned batik, embroidery and beadwork collections and a chance to view exquisite silver and porcelain pieces from the holdings of the Mariette Collections; a major collection of Peranakan art.
