JUNK OR TREASURE? - EXPERT DAY AT PORZELLANIKON HOHENEBERG A.D. EGER!


On 3 August 2023, to coincide with the Porcelain Festival, the next Expert Day will be held at Porzellanikon - State Museum of Porcelain. In Hohenberg a.d. Eger, porcelain enthusiasts and collectors can find out about their small and large treasures. Whether brand, time of origin or edition size - (almost) nothing remains hidden. From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., curator Petra Werner will once again be on hand to share her expert knowledge of porcelain from Germany and all the renowned European manufactories with visitors from near and far. Up to three porcelain objects can be brought along for examination. In an entertaining way, Petra Werner describes everything there is to say about the presented heirlooms or favourite pieces, curiosities or collectors' items. After a few moments it is clear whether they are true treasures or lovable junk.

Those who want to shorten the possible waiting time can take a walk through the current special exhibition "Luxury, Wellness, Porcelain - A Day at the Bohemian Spa". Coffee & cake as well as hearty food will be offered for the small appetite.

The last expert day in 2023 will take place on 19 October 2023. Sufficient parking spaces are available. Price: museum admission; registration at besuchercenter(at)porzellanikon.org or tel. +49 9287-918000.

Address: Schirndinger Straße 48, 95691 Hohenberg a.d. Eger.
