This is probably a Won't Fix situation (Air is probably WAI) but I can confirm this happens with all item models that use the builtin/entity parent in their item model.

If you use the item_model component on an item that doesn't have the builtin/entity on one that does have it, it will appear invisible.
e.g.

/give @p grass_block[minecraft:item_model=white_bed]

This happens because it is not given a texture to assign to the item. This also happens if you use a model like the following:

/give @p grass_block[minecraft:item_model=handheld]
