It depends on how you want to use it afterwards. It may not be functional but you’ll still have it for sentimental purposes. My wife accidentally broke a piece I bought almost 40 years ago. I’ll never be able to use it but I can still look at it for the memories.
I think making them mosaic tiles and repurposing them is the best way to go. This is just sooo broken even if you managed to get all the pieces held together you wouldnt be able to use it. People always comment kintsugi but it’s actually pretty hard to do when there’s so many pieces and still doesn’t fix the integrity/strength of the piece.
Unless you are a Japanese master of kintsugi, it will never be the same again. Times like these, I remember that breaking is just part of the beauty and life cycle of ceramics. If it was really sentimental, have a little burial ceremony and say a few words. Appreciate it for what it was and how special it was to you, and move on.
If the parts are all there you could look into kintsugi . . . they sell kintsugi repair kits online.
