Straits Tasbih
The Straits collection was designed by Tania as a means to honour the charm of her Peranakan heritage and culture. The Straits, Manis and Nonya tasbihs all carry delicate handmade ornaments that add an oriental flare to these colourful pieces and they are a sweet ode to the culture’s known liking for adornment and accessorising.
Representing the beauty of trade and the culmination of differences that make up the very tapestry of Peranakan culture, the Straits tasbih reflects the elegance of antique blue and white Chinese porcelain – a popular trading good within the Straits Settlements. The charms that adorn this piece also capture another icon associated with the Baba and Nonya of the Straits and that is the Peranakan tile.
