via Borneo Bulletin, 06 June 2024: The “Exploring the World of Baba Nyonya” exhibition in Qionghai, Hainan, showcases the rich Peranakan culture through artifacts like a silver cigarette case, traditional clothing, and household items. Highlighting the cultural fusion of Chinese and Malay influences, the exhibition features 124 artefacts from Singapore’s museums. It aims to foster cross-cultural appreciation and understanding of the unique Baba Nyonya heritage, celebrating its historical significance along the Maritime Silk Road.

The exhibition features 124 pieces and sets of cultural relics from the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Peranakan Museum in Singapore, along with 13 pieces of Peranakan furniture from the China (Hainan) Museum of The South China Sea.

From Peranakan portraits to traditional clothing, household items, wedding customs and architectural styles, the exhibition offers a comprehensive view of the vibrant and intricate Baba Nyonya world.

The traditional attire of the Nyonya, known as the Kebaya, is one of the most iconic examples of Baba Nyonya fashion.

This blouse-dress showcases the community’s rich cultural heritage with its intricate embroidery, vibrant colours, and delicate patterns that narrate tales of tradition and craftsmanship.
