1 day agoObsessed with gold: A $10M toilet and Trump's Oval Office DW 11/18/2025
A toilet is making headlines. The reason? It's made of solid 18-carat gold and is being auctioned at Sotheby's on November 18, with a starting bid of around $10 million (8.6 miilion). The fully functional toilet was created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan also known for his duct-taped banana, which sold for $6.2 million at auction in 2024. Described as a commentary on excessive wealth, the artwork's name is also fitting for the current US president: "America."
