About
Brze činjenice: You'll find over 3,000 ceramic pieces that span techniques from tin-glazed maiolica to delicate Baroque figurines.
Istaknuto: Step into a recreated workshop corner where warm, earthy clay dust hangs in the air and the metallic tang of tin glaze seems almost audible as lamps pick out tiny brushstrokes. An installation of 150 painted tiles, each labeled with the artisan's name and glaze recipe, lets you trace pigments and patterns like a forensic map of color and technique.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, the museum sits on Mondovì's hilly historic centre and involves a short uphill walk.
- Ask staff about the kiln exhibits and restoration work, they often share technical details not on labels.
- Take non-flash close-up photos to capture glazes and painted details, many galleries allow photography without flash.
- Visit the small shop for local artisan pieces and catalogues, prices vary and some bargains can be found.
