Fodor's Review:

An architectural anachronism when it was completed in 1887 and stocked with Gustave Revilliod's immense collection of ceramics, sculpture, furniture, textiles, coins, books, and silverware, this serene Italianate structure ceded its parkland to the Palais des Nations in 1928 and now houses the Musée Suisse de la Céramique et du Verre (Swiss Museum of Ceramics and Glass). Stoneware, earthenware, porcelain, and glass covering 700 years of East-West exchange populate the upper floors; contemporary work rotates through the basement.
