“I bought the lamp from Taylor B and figured I would find a
place for it somewhere; it may seem out of place with the Chinese
pieces. I was told that the designer has produced similar pieces

picked up over the years from Chinatown and Dempsey. The horse
artwork was purchased over Chinese New Year from a one-off
artist exhibition.”

“When I bought the Balinese headdress they said it had
been used in a fire dance – and it is actually a little singed! I started
buying furniture when I knew I would be living in Singapore for some
tiem. The bed is from John Erdos, some of the accessories are from
Lim’s and the funky Union Jack cushions are from a little place in
Pasir Panjang. I purchased the pillows and bedding in blues and
greys in an effort to tie in the existing curtains.”
“Raffles Hotel has a great shop where I picked up the silk-screened cushions
which sit nicely on the low Chinese bench from Lim’s. Lim’s is a good place for
reasonably priced antiques and reproduction pieces, and it has good sales. The
Balinese balls on the kitchen bench are from Ubud.”
