Flagstaff
House Museum of Tea Ware
Flagstaff House, itself a historical treasure, houses some
of Hong Kong's most prized collection pieces of ceramics.
Completed in 1846, Flagstaff House was originally the
home of the Commander-in-Chief of the British forces, and today is Hong
Kong's oldest surviving colonial building. This whitewashed gem is a
protected historical monument. The core collection of the museum, teaware
donated by a local collector, the late Dr K. S. Lo, focuses on ornate
oriental teaware.
Adjoining the museum is the K. S. Lo Gallery
with its rare collection of ceramics and Chinese seals.
