Have you tried Emory cloth? It is sort of like sand paper but mine is in a smaller strip.

I have never used it on Porcelain. My mom taught me to use it on glass wear that had a sharp edge from a chip.

I have used it for small points on my fused glass pendants and on seaglass that may have an edge that did not get tumbled enough.

You can use cheap diamond tipped grinding tools on a dremel or flex shaft tool. Dremels are cheap at pawn shops, and the diamond bits are available at hobby stores or Harbor Freight stores.
