Sometimes I will use something and realize I've owned it forever. It's a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.

Ceramic or metal?

Metal, with a glass lid and a bakelite handle.

It's non-magnetic but too light to be aluminium, I don't know what material it is made of.

Unobtanium.

I destroy anything that isn't metal out if clumsiness but I love this general design (the Norwegian teapot). Congrats on yours, really enjoyed the history of it.
