I’ve been browsing antique jewelry a lot lately and wonder about this. With jewelry specifically I think about hair, coral, pearls.

Then that extends out to animal skins, bones, human relics, etc.

What makes one thing gross but the other okay?

    Well I was invited to a medical museum after hours, thinking about it, the mummies in question wasn’t Egyptian “thousands of years old”, a really old one might probably need good temperature and humidity control and surveillance of other things like mold etc.
