The “Friends of Doccia” Association was founded in Florence in July of 2003 as a non-profit cultural association by John Winter and other enthusiasts, scholars, academics and collectors in order to create a research center for the antique porcelain made in the factory of Doccia. The Association represents a point of reference for studies and promotes research on Ginori porcelain in Italy and abroad through exhibitions, symposiums and cultural exchanges between museums and similar associations.
