Stop clearing out your china cabinet until you have checked the bottom of your teacups.

While the market for everyday tea sets has largely cooled, a specific group of antique teacups is currently seeing a massive surge in collector interest. These items are often being sold for pennies at estate sales and garage sales simply because they are assumed to be common, mass-produced ceramics.

My name is David Robert, and for over three decades, I have been evaluating collections across the country. I have seen families donate items that were actually rare treasures, costing them thousands of dollars in potential sales. In this video, I am pulling back the curtain on the 12 specific types of teacups that collectors are currently hunting for.

Take a close look at your displays tonight. You might be holding a small fortune in your cupboard.
