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.
