What is a bone china cup?

Bone china is the abbreviated scientific name of bone china. Bone china is a kind of porcelain made from animal bone charcoal, clay, feldspar and quartz as the basic raw materials, which are fired twice by high temperature biscuit firing and low temperature glaze firing.

The so-called bone china was invented by the British in 1794. It is named after the ashes of cattle, sheep and other herbivorous animals (preferably cattle bone meal) are added to its clay, and it is an environmentally friendly green consumer product.

The color of bone china is a natural milky white unique to natural bone meal. Generally speaking, the porcelain with 25% bone meal in the raw material can be called bone china. It is internationally recognized that the bone meal content is higher than 40%, and the bone china with the best texture generally contains 51% high-quality beef bone meal. Among them, the bone meal composition is more than 40%, and the color of the utensils is more milky white, which is a high-grade bone china. In my country, only a few manufacturers in Tangshan, Zibo and other places produce and export.
