Same intro, new photos.<\/p>\n<p>In May 2016 I traveled to Dresden, Germany, to see the world renowned ceramics collection at the <a href=\"https:\/\/porzellansammlung.skd.museum\">Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, Porzellansammlung<\/a>, located in the\u00a0Zwinger, Dresden\u2019s magnificent palace. Not only did I see the jaw-droppingly gorgeous ceramics, sumptuously displayed in various rooms and hallways of the palace, but I was given a private tour by\u00a0Heike Ulbricht, conservator of ceramics. Ms. Ulbricht was most\u00a0generous with her time, spending over 2 hours showing me early repairs sprinkled throughout the collection, and giving me a peek at pieces she and her colleagues were currently working on. Only about 10% of the collection is on view to the public so I was thrilled\u00a0to witness\u00a0the astonishing\u00a0collection of over 20,000 examples, kept cool in underground vaults below the great halls of the palace.<\/p>\n<p>Please take a look at <a href=\"_wp_link_placeholder\" data-wplink-edit=\"true\">Inside the Zwinger Palace vaults, part 1<\/a>, \u00a0previously posted and
