The guest further explained that his beloved mother used to own the bowl, and in his family home, there was actually a bit of a collection of the pieces, as his mum owned another one which was unfortunately broken while someone was playing a game of football in her house.

I need to get all my mum's stuff valued if THAT is going for 55 grand." "I swear to god how is a bowl worth 55 grand? Who is going to bu){kind=link}
