Kaolin is the main type of clay in porcelain. Bone china is a porcelain body that has an inclusion of bone ash, calcined animal bone (calcium phosphate), which adds hardness and translucency.
Bone china mugs are usually made in the United Kingdom. Bone china is just a soft-paste porcelain. The name 'china' has to do with the material rather than the country of origin.
Several processes are involved in the making of bone china, but the ingredient that sets it apart from fine china, is the component of bone ash that is included in its manufacture. Hence where the name bone china comes from, and without this ash component, china is not really 'bone' china. It is also usually more expensive than other china, and this is justified by the processes and labour involved in its making. A piece of bone china contains at least 25% of bone ash, and this compound not only adds strength and white color to the china, but also makes it translucent. Not totally transparent, but enough for the light to pass through it.
The 'bone' in bone china indicates that the china clay has been mixed with bone ash.
It means the fine bone China was Made In China.
Ox bone.
The difference is the spelling.
