This set of Early Dynasty Purple Clay Teapots was arguably one of the finest items in the auction. Wesley Grant was a renowned master of Purple Clay Teapots.

"The starting bid is one hundred thousand!" The moment the auctioneer finished speaking, people in the audience began to bid, though the increments were small and confined to a narrow range. Seraphina Sterling remained still, and Aiden Faulkner also watched and waited.
"Five hundred thousand! Do I hear anything higher than five hundred thousand?"
"Six hundred thousand!" Seraphina Sterling made her move. There was activity from the third-floor VIP suites again, and the main floor fell silent. No one with any sense would bid against the guests upstairs.
"Seven hundred thousand!" Aiden Faulkner also sprang into action.
