Lenox – Butler’s Pantry China. 1,266 ppm lead when tested with an XRF Instrument. Manufactured circa 2006? The amount of lead that is considered unsafe in an item intended for use by children is anything 90 parts per million (ppm) or more. Dishware is not regulated and dishware manufacturers claim that their product is not made for use by children, however big companies like Lenox seem to be working towards removing lead from their products (as newer products from them tend to consistently have less lead than older ones.)

I have read that bone china does not have any lead in it. Is that true?

That is 100% not true. Put “Bone China” in the search bar at the top of any page of the website.
