With over 800 unique photographs, this Chinese art book is a feast for the eyes.


Produced exclusively for wealthy Chinese communities along the Strait of Malacca in the 19th and early 20th centuries, Peranakan Chinese porcelain is enjoying a resurgence of interest among collectors.


Straits-born Chinese, or Peranakans, in Penang, Malacca and Singapore, used this ornate and colorful enamelware on festive occasions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and Chinese New Year.


Peranakan Chinese Porcelain is richly illustrated and includes key information on reign marks and factory marks. In-depth discussion of the motifs, colors, forms and functions of Peranakan Chinese ceramics makes this an invaluable reference.


Supporting photographs and text introduce related aspects of Peranakan culture including architecture, dress, cuisine and customs, making
Peranakan Chinese Porcelain a wonderful contribution to the history of the Straits Chinese.
