Bone china was first developed by English potters in 18th century. The traditional formulation that contains bone ash provides the porcelain with very high mechanical and physical strength, as well as chip resistance. This allows for the production of thinner cross-sections compared to any other type of porcelain, resulting in a translucent body. However, in modern production, hydroxyapatite compounds derived from rock sources are primarily used instead of bone ash. Nowadays, China is the world's largest manufacturer of bone china.
