In 2011 Nirmal Sethia, the Chairman of the luxury tea company Newby Teas, set himself the task of acquiring the world’s greatest collection of teawares to record and preserve tea cultures of the past. Named in honour of his late wife, Chitra, the collection totals almost 2000 objects and is the world’s finest and most comprehensive of its kind. With objects from Europe, Asia and the Americas, and from over a thousand years of history, the Chitra Collection is a unique reflection of the importance of tea and the diversity of tea drinking customs across the world.
The Chitra Collection is owned by the N. Sethia Foundation, a charity founded by Nirmal Sethia in 1995, which supports medical research, the arts, youth activities and disaster relief management.
