ABOUT KEBAYA

the Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICS-ICH), inscribed "Kebaya: knowledge, skills, traditions and practices" on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity under the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage or the 2003 UNESCO Convention. This was a multinational inscription by five Southeast Asian countries: Thailand, Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore.

"Kebaya" is a traditional women's attire in Southeast Asia and a part of the Baba-Peranakan dress culture in southern Thailand. It is a shared cultural heritage of the Chinese-Malay community, particularly the Hokkien Chinese who migrated from Penang and Malacca to trade in the Malay Peninsula and settled in South of thailand during the reigns of King Rama III to King Rama V. This migration led to a blending of ethnicities and cultures between the immigrants and the local population, symbolising peaceful coexistence in cultural diversity.

ABOUT PERANAKAN JEWELRY

The profession made Peranakan jewelry continues to be passed on from one generation to the next till nowadays. Peranakan in south Thailand Drawn by opportunities to Phuket's then very new tin mining industry, many Straits Chinese (Singapore, Melaka, Pinang Malaysia) migrated to Phuket and south of Thailand in the 19th century. Once they had secured jobs and settled, many of the men married local women. These hybrid culture marriages gave way to a new ethnicity known as the Peranakan or Baba Nyonya.

It is relevant today as wearable collectibles as the peranakan community struggles to keep its rich culture and traditions alive. they are aware that these pieces are valuable not only for the stones, the gold and the heritage but they are the result of the laborious effort of many humans of different backgrounds working together for days on end.
