Great Museums of the World For Oriental & European Ceramics & Porcelain


These links lead to Museums showing an amazing collection of material-Chinese & European porcelain and ceramics; English medieval pottery; Japanese modern and antique pottery and so on. It seems a pity that some of the major museums have so little of their material pictured and described on their websites but no doubt things will improve in the near future



I will in the near future be including links to other useful websites such as shippers and places to stay during your visit to London
