The Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware will present a new exhibition from tomorrow, showcasing works by renowned teapot makers of the Ming and Qing dynasties and the 20th century as well as the art of zisha pottery.

The exhibits are from the collection of Lo Kwee-seong who began collecting tea ware in the 1950s. He donated his collection to the former Urban Council of Hong Kong in 1981, prompting the founding of the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware.

Highlight exhibits include a pear-shaped export teapot from the Qing dynasty as well as a globular teapot with a rounded shoulder, a teapot with a dragon handle and three legs and a mango-shaped coloured clay teapot from the 20th century.

A demonstration video of how to make a zisha teapot by local ceramic artist Wong May-lee and an education corner featuring the setting of a literati member's study have been set up inside galleries.

In view of the latest situation of COVID-19, the museum will be partially open. Visits will be arranged in sessions to limit visitor flow.

The exhibition will run until July 31 next year.
