Katong Antique House

it was an awesome sight when i walked into the room that was connected to the shop at the entrance, hidden away by a printed cotton curtain. it was like a walk through time as i scanned through the sepia photographs and antique furniture cluttered all around, and despite that, there seems to be a sense of order around.




these are the batik cina i borrowed from Mr. Peter Wee after the visit today.

some details


these are cheek kee cards. Mr. Wee gave me a handful of loose pieces from this bronze plate for reference. it came along with a photocopy of the legend for my reference to its meaning.


thank you so much, sir, for showing us around, and for sharing your treasures!
stupidly forgot to bring my notebook and had no
choice but to write on a piece of receipt. pathetic
