The National Museum of Duca di Martina contains one of the most prestigious collections of European and Oriental decorative arts, with over 6,000 works of art and objects made of glass, amber, coral, emerald, and mostly porcelain and majolica.
The museum is located on the Vomero hill, in Villa Floridiana. This villa used to be the holiday residence of the Duchess of Floridia, Lucia Migliaccio, wife of Ferdinand I of Bourbon. Designed by the Tuscan architect Antonio Piccolini, the neoclassical villa was acquired by the Italian state in 1919, along with the surrounding parks and gardens, and has hosted the museum of ceramics since 1927.
