This is listed as bone china. On Overstock.com it is listed as stoneware. Which is it?

It is very nice every day China / stoneware . It's kind of inbetween , like a lighter weight stone wear , solid it not super heavy.

I really don't know. I use stoneware all the time for baking and cooking but it has never crossed my mind to ask this question. Now I wonder.

The signage on the bottom of the teapot says "Wedgwood England 1759 Cuckoo Bone China." So my best guess is England.

It is porcelain. A little thinner than ceramic would be, but not as thin as bone china.

I am not sure, but I am very satisfied with this flatware. I have had it for about eight months and it looks like new. I especially like the large size serving pieces.

Yes, it was manufactured in China as is even most of the bone-china that has a British name. These dishes are beautiful but are not china, as advertised. They are actually rather heavy as I learned to my surprise. Still, I have service for twelve and they are even more beautiful on my table than any picture I have seen. I get compliments always.

It is Thompson Pottery which I found good reviews. It is made of durable & chip resistant stoneware and not heavy at all. Feels more like a fine China plate and stacks so nicely. Hope this helps.

I have these dishes in black and unfortunately chipped a coffee mug. Now that I can "see" the inside, it is definitely stoneware, not bone china.

It is neither. It is heavy. It is not plastic, it is not corelle. It is kinda like stoneware.

Bone China & i really like them. I haven't had any problem with chipping & they look great mixing & matching when i want to change my tables cape.

It is good quality for the price. The bottom only says Royal Albert bone china and of course 1962 Royal Albert ltd. The very best china will cost plenty. It is something one should see and purchase in person in my opinion.

I have had stoneware pieces in the past that took years and years of being microwaved without damage. Assuming that it IS indeed stoneware as advertised, it should hold up, though I would check for any specific warnings against it on the item just in case.

actually the plates are USA and the cups are China. the cups are stoneware now and not corelle like they used to be years ago, i'm not sure why the change for the cups.

It is a high fire ceramic similar to porcelain. It is not stone. It is porous.

Hi: I am really not an expert but I do have some basic knowledge through my own personal research over the years due to my own awareness of what materials I am cooking my food in. Stoneware is simply a clay type of material and completely safe. Ceramic has a different type of finish. Stoneware is more clay type base but both of those are great to cook in. There are no safety standards based on my research. Actually it is highly recommended.

According to other websites and some Amazon listings (check under the Rachael Ray "Little Hoot" dinnerware set), the set is porcelain. Mine aren't marked either.
