Nothing Further To Add

There are 1) Visitor from Penang, Pulau Pinang searching for “antique cupboard straits peranakan imported overseas 100 years old. 2) Visitor from Houston, Texas searching for “nyonya furniture” 3) Visitor from Kuala Lumpur searching for “Ching antique furniture Malaysia”. I do not know or hear of any shop selling such furniture now.

 3) Visitor from Kuala Lumpur searching for “antique porcelain repair in penang” which I do not know whether the skill for porcelain repair has been imported from China to Penang . 4) Visitor from Singapore searching for “Chinese antique ting” which I do not know what he or she wants?  5) Visitor from London searching for “Chinese antiques Kuala Lumpur”. There were shops selling items called “curios” and that kind of shops has a mixture with antiques, later these shops closed down because collectors demanding antiques with certificates. 6) Visitor from Kampar searching for “buying authentic nyonya porcelain wares” which is a difficult deal to handle because most of the authentic nyonya porcelain are without certificates which most antique collectors wants the certificates to go with the authentic nyonya porcelain wares and other wares. 7) Visitor from Butterworth, Pulau Pinang searching for “Malaysia antique collector”. So far not many Malaysia antique collector is heard of but I heard of a “Ku Tung Wong” (in Cantonese means antique king) whether he is a collector or dealer which I am not clear is found in Ipoh. There is one thing that I am certain is that if collectors who owned 1) items without certificates.2) items which he or she is unable to prove that they are genuine are at a high risk and can cause riches or wealth never pass one generation which I can be very sure of. 7) Visitor from Seri Kembangan searching for “value of Blue and white nyonya ware”. I do not know which type you are talking about “batik blue and white” or “butterfly pattern”. Everything has a value and it is whether of high value or low value. The original ones are of high value because at that time when it was mass produced with good workmanship. Later mass produced in Bandung can be easily bought or order to make. There is a difference between the ancient and new and also that tests can be carried out. Ancient artefacts cannot be produced in modern factories and if ancient artefacts can be produced by modern factories, then new made ancient artefacts will flood the market making bad values for old made ancient artefacts then you and I will not hear of what is term as “museum piece”. TL test will damage porcelain artefact and before you send your item for test, do more research on the test. 8) Visitor from London searching for “penang antiques” which I do not know what he or she wants because there are so many different kinds of antiques. 9) Visitor from Singapore searching for “peranakan porcelain Singapore” puzzled me because being Singapore based has to ask foreigner for direction. 10) Visitor from Canton, Ohio searching for ”nyonya  porcelain ware”, and another from Northwich, Cheshire searching for “nyonya ware porcelain” should look at my earlier blog stated. 11) Visitor from Diamond Bar California searching for “old shops in Malaysia photo” which I do not know whether there are any shops that sells such items. 12) Visitor from Kuala Lumpur searching for “Chinese antiques in old klang road. Please look into the earlier blogs because you are not the only one looking for these places and there is one family run business has shifted most of the artefacts out of Malaysia after the founder of the business died and the address of the business is in the earlier blog.

Recently I met a lady who told me that my late father was sued for selling fake antiques or copies, there are the people who want to get facts twisted. My late father was the plaintiff in this case and I was the witness to this case which lead to 1) Experts namely William Willetts, and Peter Clague whom I do not know whether he the Singapore Peter Clague or Malaysia Peter Clague did not show the difference between the old and modern copies at the trial. 2) Learned Magistrate, Che Mokhtar Bin Che Ali who disappeared from the trial while in session must have known what is genuine and what is imitation otherwise how is he to pass judgement. I am taking this opportunity to congratulate collectors that has been attacking my late father for selling Bandung copies and that I longed for retirement (after my wife passed away) in buying and selling Chinese Antiques so that 1) There will be no further accusation of Ronnie Ng’s father (Mr. Ng Ting Kau) and later Ronnie Ng for selling fakes or Bandung copies or modern copies. 2) To make way for collectors to making wealth can pass three generations and at the same time there are many collectors around the world who are able to make good authentications. 3)To make way for a request in Heritage Asia Magazine is to invite one Mr. Mohammad to give talks on antiques which I can agree that experts from Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and other Europeans including Malaysia will be able to help in authentication.

There will no more reply for visitors’ searches because I experienced the truth about collectors and there is nothing further for me to add.
