Magnet (Samsui Woman), Memories of Old Singapore

Description Dressed in her distinctive red headscarf and dark-blue or black samfu, she laboured on construction sites and in households, playing a vital role in building early Singapore. Her story reflects the endurance and quiet determination of migrant women who helped shape the city. ⎯ Memories of Old Singapore, A Heritage Series by Qua: These heritage icons tell the story of how people lived, worked, gathered, and cared for one another in old Singapore (early 1900s) — reminding us that the foundations of the city were built not only by grand plans, but by everyday lives and traditions. Engraved on wood, these familiar icons take on a tactile form, bringing depth, texture, and warmth to each piece. Placed in your daily spaces, they become more than decoration — they are quiet reminders of shared experiences, cultural rhythms, and stories that continue to live on.
