A story about the Chinese Yixing teapot – Messy bundles of tea … but they cost a fortune
antique vases, furniture and porcelain plates adorn the walls, or sitting on shelves pretty.
Some of them, he tells you, from dynasties such as Ming and Qing.
Mr Loh, 61, is senior lecturer in engineering at the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris. He made headlines in 2000 when, in a world first, he developed a way to make gold lilac for use in jewelry. Since then he has sold the rights to the technique of luxury jewelry Aspial.
For a more fascinating his passion and immensely profitable investment in things Chinese, it takes you to a room at the rear of the house.
There piled haphazardly on top of another on the ground are black tea leaves that have been compressed into various shapes such as cakes and bricks. The paper envelope is torn between them in certain places, and words that are withered. But the value of tea, as he reveals breathtaking.
"This brick tea here has a market value of $ 1,000, he said." I have 1200 bricks. When they bought decades ago in China, they cost him as little as a few dollars each.
"In Hong Kong and China, people, especially businessmen, will now pay a lot of money at auctions of tea, "says Loh, who plans to sell part of its tea from such events.
After more than 25 years of collection, which has been fueled by the desire to learn more about his roots, he believes he has the largest collection of Pu Er Tea kind in Singapore – about two tons.
His tea Pu Er is a variety of Chinese tea dear, is between 30 and 80 years vintage.
"A Once I was in Guangzhou and bought all the tea in a shop for about $ 30,000. Initially, the dealer thought I was joking, "He recalls. An uncle living in China has borrowed a truck to transport the tea to a port for shipment to Singapore.
Explain the value of tea, Mr. Loh said tea tastes simply better with age like wine does.
In addition, it is generally considered to build anti-cancer ingredients as it ages. And he is reputed to be good for overall health, he said.
"I drank tea for I was young when my father took me to tea houses in Chinatown. Since then, I've never been on sick leave, and has never been hospitalized.
He jokes: "I can live to 120.
Given his belief in the tea, he began his six children on this subject from a very early age.
In fact, says Loh Xiang Yang's daughter, 24, who just completed his engineering degree the Nanyang Technological University. "I remember drinking tea from a bottle of milk!
Cradling her father's daughter Baby 11-months, which is his half sister, she adds that the child has already had his first taste of tea.
If it is extended, the collection of Mr. Loh Tea has halved his family consumed daily.
From time to time, sell some of it for a good profit. The buyers have seen their tea greatly appreciate in value.
"A friend, an associate professor, has stopped drinking the tea because it is so precious. He would feel a little pain when he thinks about how his drinking is expensive.
With his passion for tea, Mr. Loh also has a keen interest in teapots.
He rises to show a teapot from a glass cabinet in the living room, and enthuses: "This is art. Look at the calligraphy on one side. And you can see the shape of the teapot and clay.
It reveals that the teapot, which is the size a mug of beer, is $ 90,000. He had bought in China for about $ 280 in 1978.
While he was crazy about these items, he was happy to live in housing authority apartments until he bought the house six years ago today.
His first wife did not take his spending patterns, but which causes a breakdown of their marriage.
Mr. Loh began working at 15 as an apprentice welder and acquired higher academic qualifications through night study.
He won a scholarship from the Colombo Plan to study Great Britain, and in 1977 earned a Master of Science in the United States on other exchanges.
He has done consulting engineering, which have earned more money than paying its speaker.
Thus he was able to finance his passion for antiques and Chinese tea up to $ 1 million and reaped gains of several times.
And he can not afford to serve you steaming tea first PU. You can not help ask him how much cup costs. He thought a moment and said, "about $ 40.
