Situated inside the Boboli gardens, this collection consists mainly of table porcelain used by the Grand Ducal and Royal households of the Medici, Lorena and Savoy families. The collection is divided by national origin and by manufacturer: Italian and French porcelain is displayed along with pieces from Doccia, the local Florentine factory. The collection of French porcelain from Sevres was brought to Florence from Savoy and part of it is a gift from Napoleon I to his sister Elisa Baiocchi who was the Duchess of Tuscany from 1809 to 1814. Admission: EUR 6 and includes entry to the Museo delle Costume, Giardino di Boboli, Museo degli Argenti and the Museo Bardini.
