RSA second change teapot

'A teapot within a teapot' aBetween the inside of the large teapot and outside of the smaller teapot there is a layer of powder fine, grinded ceramics. This, when the teapot is dropped, acts as a shock absorber and in doing so prevents the small, inner teapot from becoming damaged. Ceramics in the domestic environment are flawed materials. When dropped or banged they will break and become unusable. The conventional way to fix this problem is to encase the weaker material in a stronger material. However I embraced the weakness of the material and in this product I have giving the customer a second chance without loosing the ceramic tactile qualities of the teapot
