[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bone china is not made of bone. It's made of a very fine clay found in special locations like Japan and China, the places of it's origin. Wiki "Porcelain". Bone china is porcelain.[/quote] Um. Wrong. bone china, hybrid hard-paste porcelain containing bone ash. The initial development of bone china is attributed to Josiah Spode the Second, who introduced it around 1800. His basic formula of six parts bone ash, four parts china stone, and three and a half parts china clay remains the standard English body. Although hard porcelain is strong, it chips fairly easily and, unless specially treated, is usually tinged with blue or gray. Somewhat easier to manufacture, bone china is strong, does not chip easily, and has an ivory-white appearance.[/quote]
