You sank my battleship! Beautifully-designed wooden and metal ship toys from Papa Foxtrot . Emma Maersk At nearly 400 meters in length, the Emma is the longest container ship in the world. Besides being the longest, she also has the world’s largest diesel engine producing nearly 110,000 horsepower. She carries over 11,000 containers from China to Europe every seven weeks, with stops in Africa and the Middle East on her way. Emma’s first captain, Henrik Solmer, said that piloting her is a fantastic feeling and “what younger people would say is cool.” Arctic Princess With nearly 150,000 cubic meters of liquified natural gas, the Princess carries enough energy to power 45,000 homes for a year.

This Flower Pump vase by Veneri Design Studio is another interesting anatomical heart piece (remember the Ventricle Vessel and Corezone ?) except this one is on a nice base and includes quite a few openings for single flowers. I think it would be cool if you weaved a plant in and out of the holes.
