Hardbound. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: No dust jacket as published. First edition, second printing. Chinese migration to Southeast Asia, beginning in the 15th century, concentrated along the western coastal regions of the Malay Peninsula and Singapore, then a British colonial holding known as the Straits Settlements. The so named 'Straits Chinese' gradually amalgamated their native southern Chinese culture with those of their Malay, European and Indian neighbours, resulting in a unique Straits Chinese material and social culture. The present volume explores this aesthetic in detail, with many historic and modern colour images. The author, a Straits Chinese originally from Penang, describes the people, their everyday lives, their early occupations, religions, customs and festivals, architecture and particularly their arts and crafts, including textiles, costume and adornment, objects of silver, ceramics and glass, as well as their literature and performing arts. A final section examines the status of the Straits Chinese in the modern world. Richly illustrated and authoritatively written, the books is an important reference on this unique culture. 288 pp., over 250 col. and b&w photos, 2 maps, bibliography, index.

Good condition overall.; One of the most intriguing of South-East Asian vessels is the kendi, a pot with two openings and no handle. The story of the kendi is closely interwoven with the history of South-East Asia, kendi of pottery and porcelain having been recovered in sites dispersed over a vast area of Island South-East Asia. While comparison of existing vessels indicates some were of native manufacture, being fashioned of porous clay, the majority are non-porous glazed kendi of foreign origin. They formed part of the extensive trade in ceramics that flowed into the region from China, Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam and which were specially manufactured for export for both household and ceremonial purposes. The kendi in the Muzium Seni Asia, University of Malaya, form the world's largest public collection of kendi. Collectively spanning a period of over 1,000 years, and representing a number of Asian countries, they reflect differences in potting techniques, material, and decoration and show how an ancient form has survived to the present. They thus provide important clues to the patterns of trade and culture as well as the practices and customs that prevailed in the region at different periods.…
