The Intan is a private home that houses one of Singapore’s most impressive collections of Peranakan (a group descended from Chinese settlers) artifacts. Owner Alvin Yapp has spent 30-plus years collecting 1,500 objects from Peranakan culture, most notably kasot manek (ornate beaded slippers worn by Straits Chinese women) and enamel tiffin carriers hand-painted in delicate floral patterns. Yapp's post-war home is a labor of love, and it shows in the meticulous way that he has arranged every square inch of it.

Your experience at the Intan is approximately 1 hour and it includes:
- Tea & home-made refreshments
- A brief understanding of the history and culture of the Peranakans
- Learning about the traditional and lavish Peranakan wedding ceremony
- Appreciating the colourful and intricate beadwork & embroidery handmade by the Nyonya ladies

With a private visit, you and your guest(s) will be able to come up close and intimate with hidden treasures that otherwise wouldn’t be seen by visitors. Alvin will open explain and provide access to some of his most private and precious collection.
