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?

    If I look at an object and I’m reminded that it comes from a dead human or creature i probably wont keep it.

    An old jacket is ok because i just see a cool jacked but a tiger skin rug would always remind me of a dead tiger.
