本是一本浪漫的书，书中收录的，是土生华人——娘惹闺房中的床具。是年轻的作者让这些独特的珍藏品以图文并茂、中英兼容的方式的分享。 土生华人是东南亚独有的族群。数百余年来他们衍生了独特的文化。收录进这本书里的床具如枕顶和帐钩应时而生，迎市而灭。留下的文物陈列在这本书里，让今天的人对昨天的峇峇娘惹凭借实物增加多一层的认识，而不至于捕风捉影。 The Peranakan Chinese are a hybrid minority born out of the will to perpetuate the legacy of the early migrant forefathers in Southeast Asia. While accumulating wealth and honour on this fertile land, they had also created a rich culture of their own. These beautiful and intricate bed ornaments bear testament to their unique existence throughout the Straits of Malacca, Indonesia, Thailand and Myanmar. A collection like this leaves us with the rich imagination of a lavish tribe. The collection in this book has given many insights into the past. It is hoped that this book will bring as much enjoyment to the reader as the joy earned through the processes of collecting these artefacts over the years.
