Set of three Narumi dishes. My mother loves tableware and has a lot of it at home, so I'm thinking of gradually letting some go. These were apparently passed down from my grandmother, and she only had three of them from that time. My family has grown, and I no longer use sets of three, so I'm putting them up for sale. They have been stored at home, and there are no pets or smokers. I will pack them with materials I have at home. There are some minor scratches and stains from use, but we still think they are usable in our home. However, please understand that this is a personal inspection, and I would like to sell them to someone who can accept that.

Bone china is porcelain that contains bone ash in its raw materials. It was first made in England in 1748. Currently, instead of bone ash itself, a compound called calcium phosphate is mixed in for manufacturing. Porcelain containing a certain percentage or more of this calcium phosphate is called "bone china." The Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) stipulates that bone china products must contain 30% or more calcium phosphate. By the way, "China" means "porcelain" in English. Porcelain originated in China, so it came to be called "China" in English. Even if "Bone China" is written on the product box or backstamp, it does not mean "Made in China," so please do not confuse the two.
