Generally, I keep my endeavors online & digital, never really venturing into the physical realm.

Long story short, posted on Pinterest a stock image of a product that can't be found anywhere online that people are going crazy about. I'm thinking it was handmade. There are Reddit threads asking where to buy it and people forming search parties trying to find them online. Doing a reverse image search shows threads from as far back as 2012 with people looking to buy the product. I'm getting hundreds of website visitors a day from that pin.

It's a plant pot that has a cool design.
EDIT: It's not simply a pot that can be made on a spinning wheel and designed a certain way. It is shaped like an animal so it would have to be molded (I'm guessing).

It could be made using ceramic, glass, or plastic. I just don't know how to get started with the process. Reading threads around here over the years it's not as simple as sending the picture to manufacturers in China, getting a sample, then ordering 50 of them.
