I got the same sort of unglazed ceramic tiles at Lowe's for about the
same price, too. However, I do wonder about the (potential) lead

Aren't "quarry" tiles a different critter than unglazed ceramic tiles
?? Wouldn't quarry imply stone? Beware the stone I think? because I've
heard/read it can explode????
