Mikasa sells lots of everyday bone china sets. https://www.mikasa.com/collections/bone-china-sets

Costco has one of the sets.

If you are uncomfortable with the ash used in the making of the pieces, look for everyday fine china (porcelain). Porcelain may be heavier than bone china.

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.
