The $10 Million Toilet That’s Seen It All 💎🚽

Let’s talk about a toilet. Not just any toilet—a fully functional, solid gold one named “America.” And yes, it’s about to be auctioned off for a jaw-dropping $10 million at Sotheby’s in New York.

Wait, a golden toilet?

Yep. Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan created this glittery throne back in 2016 using 223 pounds of 18-karat gold. It’s not just a sculpture—it actually works. One version was installed at the Guggenheim Museum, and over 100,000 people lined up to do their business on it.

The surviving golden toilet will be on display at Sotheby’s before the auction. But don’t get any ideas—you can look, but you can’t sit. It’s strictly for viewing this time.
