Baur Foundation - Museum of Far Eastern Art

Far Eastern Arts in all their beauty

Meeting China and Japan.

Acquired by the Swiss collector Alfred Baur (1865-1951) over a period of some 45 years, these exquisite works of art include Chinese imperial ceramic ware, jades and snuff bottles from the 8th to the 19th centuries, as well as Japanese prints, lacquer, netsuke, and sword fittings. Collectively these objects represent one of the most important collections of Far Eastern Art open to the public in Switzerland. You cannot miss out on this!
