Teapot by John Bartlam, (First porcelain maker in the US in 1763)
The seller had picked this up from an online auction. To their shock, this wasn’t any ordinary teapot. It was created by a highly regarded artisan, John Bartlam. Very few of his creations still exist all these years later making them highly valuable and rare. The seller got $806,000 for it at another auction, 2018.
