The commonest items of silverware turned out by local Chinese silversmiths during the nineteenth century in Malaysia were articles of personal ornaments intended for Nyonyas, who were particularly fond of gold and silver jewellery of ingenious and intricate workmanship. Although these items of jewellery were intended both for daily use as well as for formal, ceremonial occasions, those of better quality were used for festive celebrations such as the Chinese New Year, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and even funerals.
Pictures below are the ceremonial combs used by traditional Nyonya brides.
