Bone china is made out of clay, not bones. Actually, bone china is made out of clay AND bone ash, which is the white ash produced from the burning of bones in open air. I would assume any type of bone could be used.

The bone that man has that a pig does not is a clavicle. This is a bone located in the shoulder on each side of the neck in humans.
The 'bone' in bone china indicates that the china clay has been mixed with bone ash.

The animal origin of bone ash in bone china is typically cattle bones. These bones are boiled to remove any flesh and then calcined to create bone ash, which is a key ingredient in bone china production.
A typical recipe for bone china clay is: China Clay 37.5% Bone Ash 37.5% Feldspar 20% quartz 5%
Bone china contains bone ash which is typically made from cow bones, although sometimes it can also come from other animals such as pigs or sheep. The bone ash is used to give bone china its distinct strength and translucency.
