Museo Richard-Ginori, Art museum in Sesto Fiorentino, Italy.

The Richard-Ginori Museum displays a collection of nearly 10,000 porcelain and majolica objects, documenting the evolution of ceramic manufacturing from 1737 to 1990.

The museum originated in 1754 to exhibit ceramics and models, but received its dedicated building in 1965 under architect Pier Niccolò Berardi's design.

The collection features terracotta pieces, a porcelain fireplace with replicas of Michelangelo's statues, and classical sculptures by Gaspero Bruschi.

Since 2014, the museum remains temporarily closed due to Richard Ginori's bankruptcy, with the Italian government acquiring ownership in 2017.

The museum preserves an extensive collection of 18th and 19th-century wax molds, requiring specific temperature controls for conservation.
