A Heart, A Wishbone, and A Bird

In addition to illustrating science, I’m also a big fan of product design. So I always get excited when I see products that incorporate certain aspects of scientific illustration in them, whether a conscious choice of the designer or not. The picture above–a heart, a wishbone, and a bird, is a series of paperweights by Walteria Living, who apparently also carry the Endangered Species Chocolates. All three paperweights are cast in bronze from the real thing. http://www.walterialiving.com/.
