Vitreous china had additional coating and baking to be more durable, stain resistant and easier to clean. In other words, it adds a porcelain finish to the china. It was mostly used in restaurants and institutions from the late 1880 's to the 1940's. Today, bathroom fixtures and kitchen fixtures are still made with the vitreous process.
Fine china is extremely delicate. Usually having a bone (animal) based clay, it can not withstand the additional processing so it is not at all durable and chips very easily.

What is the difference between fine bone China and China?
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.
