inheriting ‘china’ from my mother that I do not care about at all. how do I handle this, tactfully?

I for one, never understood ‘fine china’. Maybe it’s just a thing for older generations. My mother is adamant about giving me all this china and I not only don’t want it, I don’t have the room for it.

I have no attachment to it, nor does it remind me of my mother. Or my grandmother. Because no one ever used it! I’ve barely even seen it before!

I love her and I’m very close with my family but like….what am I supposed to do? If it’s all glazed in lead with paints that are now illegal from being so toxic, none of it can go in the dishwasher, it’s miserable to eat off of or drink out of (even aside from poison) like….is it just a yesteryears weird encapsulation of ‘expensive thing’? It’s ugly and clunky and I don’t care about its monetary trophy value.

edit: thank you everyone for sharing your experience and suggestions. It is really appreciated for something that seems hard to face for me (as silly as it sounds) but generational differences between women is vast and sometimes difficult to navigate.
