Odds and Ends
Kaolin, or china clay, is the essential ingredient of hard porcelain and bone china. The Chinese discovered its use in making porcelain at least a thousand years before the Western world. Imitation being the truest form of flattery, the West so admired the magnificent white, hard and translucent material that they gave their attempts to imitate it the term of china.
