Reviews
I enjoyed a lot this museum. What I enjoyed the most was part of the temporary exhibition about ceramic food. I also liked the curation in theroom with the mirrors. I would have liked to see more in the permanent collection, though, especially from the contemporary designs, but overall it worth the visit!
