Rare Vase From Chicago's World's Fair Sold For $110,000

CHICAGO (CBS)--Someone paid $110,000 for a rare vase from the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago.

The vase was just auctioned off in New York.

The eight-foot vase was submitted by Japan to be showcased at the Chicago Fair, but it was lost shortly after.

The vase was recently found at a Berkeley, California seafood restaurant.

That restaurant closed in October and all the antiques inside were auctioned off.
