A solid gold toilet is up for auction with a $10 million starting price Updated 13 mins ago Sotheby’s has announced it will auction a solid gold toilet, a sculpture by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan called “America.” The auction is set for Nov. 18 in New York. The starting price will be based on the value of the gold's weight, currently about $10 million. Cattelan, known for provocative art, created “America” as a satire on excessive wealth. The piece gained fame after a similar version was stolen from England’s Blenheim Palace in 2019. The toilet will be on display at Sotheby’s New York headquarters from Nov. 8, but visitors won’t be able to use it.
