It holds special meaning for me as it was a wedding gift from my mom. In my city, Kuching, Sarawak, this necklace is like an old antique piece that's hard to find. It's considered rare and carries a lot of sentimental value for me. It was famous in the 50's and 60's, more or less, and it is called "Lecha" in our language. Most Malay families do have at least a piece of this similar, whether a ring, necklace, or earring too. I've heard the price can go up to 20k as we speak. As they say, "hanya jauhari yang mengenal manikam" - only the jeweler knows the true worth. Needless to say, the 4th generation continues to gather/buying more of this kind of piece as we fell in love with the remarkable workmanship of this jewelry. Feel free to email me at nrbsrh@yahoo.com if you wanna know more as I love sharing my Sarawak Malay heritage with the world.Sirahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04538894482336011933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823463978600272538.post-80536082924097607682021-12-09T14:46:25.209+08:002021-12-09T14:46:25.209+08:00Buongiorno sono bellissimi , ma sono in vendita?

Thank you so much for the compliments. T...Hi Janie. Thank you so much for the compliments. To be honest with you, the grade of gold been used especially for the Peranakan and the Malay people for the past mostly were 9-14 carat. This is due to the intricate works of the pieces (by the goldsmiths) needed a "hard-base" material to create multiple shapes for a piece of jewellery. A pure gold or higher grade gold is too soft for these purposes (machine-cut designs were not existed during that era). Most of the people also call it 'suasa' gold / 'emas suasa'. In present days, people buying 'emas lama' / old gold jewelleries is not because of the gold contain in the jewellery itself, it is more on the arts and the craftsmanships of the pieces which is getting difficult to find these days. No doubt, there are higher grade gold or pure 999 (24 carat) gold been used too for jewelleries during that time, but the designs are not as "heavy" as the lower grade gold jewelleries. And of course, I'm more than happy to help if you have clear and nice pictures to share with me... :)enticzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183699915168258537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823463978600272538.post-52339416841393582092014-06-28T13:34:15.200+08:002014-06-28T13:34:15.200+08:00Hi, i have seen a number of gold pendants with int...Hi, i have seen a number of gold pendants with intan. Can you tell me the grade of gold that was used ? Is it mainly 18-carat? Thank you, I have enjoyed viewing your collection.

Dating to the late 19th century, these earrings of Straits Settlements were made featured exceptionally clear natural old rose-cut diamonds, set in 18-karat rose-hued gold, with eight-pointed star that was well-loved, and furnished with original screw-type earring backs. I love it... enticzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183699915168258537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823463978600272538.post-45609909877275990712014-01-17T17:21:00.333+08:002014-01-17T17:21:00.333+08:00Nicely curated collection!
