Neither of these even offend elf sensibilities in the first place and anything that falls onto a elf site is laundered with 'grown' status to be used again.

Trade goods are the only outlet that elves have to market metal items, which is where i think they recycling metal items despite not having metalworking trades or access to metal weapons/armor to allocate instead of discarding them.

Usual process goes (animal drops dead = site disassembles, hence 'grown teeth' by elf entity) but for metal objects (metal drops on site = dissassembles >/= reassembled)

Can confirm in my save in v0.47.05 that elven caravan brought a "grown light yellow diamond altar" - presumably closely related to this bug. The object is indeed decorated using wood

I also just encountered this in 0.47.05. The elves sold me a "grown microcline altar". It is, in fact, decorated with wood. I can provide a save if that would be helpful.
