While in Milan, my boyfriend and I went to the Sforza Castle Museums. Although there are 14 different collections, we only had time for the Museum of Decorative Arts and the Furniture Museum. Highlights included a 19th c. silver Medusa dish, an 18th-19th c. table in pietra dura, a 17th-century silver ship with wheels, and a 17th-century Nautilus shell with little drawings.
