Dinnerware Materials Guide
Every material is thoughtfully chosen by experts to guarantee product quality and safety. Whether you're selecting tableware for a restaurant, hotel, home, or special occasion, knowing the differences in material is key — each one serves a unique purpose for various dining experiences.
Bone China
Bone china is a high-quality ceramic made primarily from 45% bone ash (typically cow bone ash), blended with kaolin, quartz, and other natural minerals. It is twice fired at 1,320°C to achieve a vitrified, semi-translucent finish with a jade-like purity. Its high hardness, low water absorption, and elegant translucency make it an ideal choice for luxury hotels, upscale restaurants, and refined home settings.
