[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 298374, member: 360"]Because they're EXTREMELY rare. They haven't been made in the better part of 100 years. And they're ONLY found in the former Straits Settlements. You're talking about $1,000 apiece nowadays. These are what Peranakan tiffin carriers look like. Enameled, hand-painted with flowers, and gold-leaf decals. VERY VERY expensive these days. And the prices are SHOOTING through the roof. In the past 2-3 years, they've more than tripled!
