Baba Bling: The Peranakans and Their Jewellery, is an exhibition showcasing some of the finest jewellery from Peranakan families and private collectors. Over 300 glittering jewels will be on display, including some of the oldest surviving pieces of Peranakan jewellery form the 19th century, as well as contemporary pieces, from Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Some of the highlights from the exhibition include 12 spectacular sets of jewelled brooches (kerosangs) from the late 19th to the early 20th century. The designs of these pieces reflect a fusion of various cultural influences. Visitors will also be able to learn more about how jewellery was made from the display of goldsmith tools and moulds.
