I break thinwalled porcelain... my office is something of a mess and I have
a tendency to put my teacup down on top of heavy machinery.

I really love the Chatsworth "Vitrified Hotelware" materials... they look
like thin china, and they have the right weight to them, but you can throw
them against the wall and they don't chip.

I'd _love_ to have a gaiwan made of that stuff.
