Decorative options such as lamps and vases can be easily tipped over and shattered due to their frailty. Not only can this be a frustrating occurrence, for owners, as clean-up can be incredibly time-consuming and tedious but rare or sentimental items can be very difficult to replace and/or repair post-incident. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem.
An apparatus to prevent decorative lamps and vases from shattering when tipped over is not being met by any known device or system at present. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem either.
The main purpose of the impact resistant casing is to provide users with a safeguarding cover for vases and lamps in order to prevent breakage.
A guard for a pottery is disclosed including a wrap comprising a base and a neck and configured to conform to a surface of the pottery from the base to the neck inclusive thereof, a base ring and a neck ring configured to overlap the wrap respectively at the base and the neck and to provide cushion to the base and neck of the pottery, and a plurality of clamps placed on the base ring and the neck ring configured to fasten the respective ring to the pottery and secure the wrap to the pottery.
Throughout the description, similar reference numbers may be used to identify similar elements depicted in multiple embodiments. Although specific embodiments of the invention have been described and illustrated, the invention is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangements of parts so described and illustrated. The scope of the invention is to be defined by the claims appended hereto and their equivalents.
Reference will now be made to exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used herein to describe the same. It will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the disclosure is thereby intended. Alterations and further modifications of the inventive features illustrated herein and additional applications of the principles of the inventions as illustrated herein, which would occur to one skilled in the relevant art and having possession of this disclosure, are to be considered within the scope of the invention.
Throughout the present disclosure, the word ‘pottery’ includes a lamp holder, a vase, a circular or semicircular piece or ceramic art, an earthenware glass, cup, bowl, pitcher, and the like made out of ceramics, clay, cement, glass, and other materials common to those learned and skilled in the art.

The present disclosed impact resistant casing, also known as “The Lamp and Vase Protector”, offers a modern accessory that prevents lamps and vases from breaking when they are accidentally dropped or tipped over, therefore, allowing users to better secure their belongings at all times. Meant to complement the average design of a lamp or vase, the Lamp and Vase Protector introduces a novel protector that can be conveniently fastened onto said objects. Users simply place the base of the lamp or vase into the center of the protector which possesses a flexible material enabling users to easily pull it up and over the sides of the object where it would stay in place via a non-slip material. Furthermore, if users seek to cover the lamp shade alone, this adaptable buffer comes with a large ring that secures it to the item when placed over the top, offering additional support. This innovative, top-quality product ensures a fully operational, safeguarding cover that protects family heirlooms without compromising the aesthetic and serves to eliminate the need for users to replace or repair their items due to random accidental drops and/or contact.
Although the operations of the method(s) herein are shown and described in a particular order, the order of the operations of each method may be altered so that certain operations may be performed in an inverse order or so that certain operations may be performed, at least in part, concurrently with other operations. In another embodiment, instructions or sub-operations of distinct operations may be implemented in an intermittent and/or alternating manner.
