Between the mid 17th and mid 18th centuries Japanese and Chinese porcelains were a notable sight in the great houses of Europe. Here, over 350 pieces have been included from many of the oldest and most famous collections in Europe to demonstrate the range of the imported Japanese wares and to show both the spread of the fashion for collecting porcelain and the styles that had the greatest effect on porcelain production in Europe.
