Soon enough and finishing my last post about my Malacca trip in details.
Doesn't talk about food but a nice remarkable items that has been brought down by older generation.
- The Beaded Shoe -
Written before this, that that was belong to my mom and she ordered from a friend before we were leaving to KL.
I could tell you that it doesn't cost any cheaper from RM200.00.
Since generation ago, beaded shoes are worn with the local custom, make it even more stand out when the design of the beads are beautiful.
- Media Interview -
Three of us visited Jonker Street and managed to visit a shop selling/ custom made beaded shoes! :) The famous one which casts from Singapore for the movie "Nyonya" was there to purchase them.
Besides, selling beaded shoes, there's more such as Wooden Portugal War Ships which my mom and dad bought one for collection.
- Beaded design for customers to select before platform being stick on -
- The making of Shoes platform -
There's a Japanese lady who was buying beaded shoe and the platform was selective on and custom made by the uncle at the shop.
How lucky am I to evidence the whole process without being chased away by the owner! :P
So here's the photographs! Enjoy!
- He is friendly! -
And he is a Baba! :P I realised there's similarity among Babas, they have a "big face" features and having a larger body size. ;)
- ZOMG! -
Saw the colourful Nyonya Beaded shoes? It's the design of our states of Malaysia!
RM650.00 O_O My eye was so huge when I saw that. Some may perceived the price was fairly reasonable because of those hard works in the process of those small and colourful beads combination. :)
I may be buying one but not at the moment, because I haven't reach the age of needing them. haha ;D
Happy Monday you all! ;) And enjoy the Sunday.
