I scooped £200k for box of broken pots left in my attic for 2 decades – but I was seconds away from losing the whole lot

A WOMAN sold a box of broken pots that had been sitting in her attic for two decades for a whopping £200,000 but nearly lost the lot.

Gill Stewart had been left the box of crockery by her grandfather, who was stationed in China during the Boxer Rebellion at the turn of the 20th century, but assumed they were largely worthless due to damage.
