I would have some bad thoughts about that family member. What a skunk!
I did use old tile for a client once. It was 5-600 year old hand thrown and painted from Morrocco.
I spent more time sorting, selecting, and grinding ( both grinder and wetsaw) than I did actually laying and grouting, but they got what they wanted and they knew what they were getting into.
Get a good dust mask, work outside, and use vinegar to wash your hair end of the day
