first development of what would become known as bone china was made in 1748 by Thomas Frye at his Bow porcelain factory near Bow, East London. His factory was located very close to the cattle markets and slaughterhouses of London and Essex, and hence had easy access to animal bones. Frye used up to 45% bone ash in his formula to create what he called "fine porcelain".
