Is it possible to repair a crack in glazed teapot?

I have a glazed pottery 1.5 liter teapot which cracked when boiling water was accidentally added. The crack is near the bottom third of the pot and is halfway around the pot. Is it repairable or just a fond memory..thanks

I have the same problem. I found this website http://www.teatreasures.com/ (look under "How to Brew Tea") that says you can immerse the cracked china in milk in a pot, heat it for 45 minutes, then dry it off and let it set overnight. The protein is supposed to seal the cracks. I'm going to try it. Good luck!
