How bad-ass is this **Grenade Estuche** (Jewelry case) set of drawers in the shape of a hand grenade by [Los Carpinteros](http://www.loscarpinteros.net/index.html)? It's certainly not your mom's typical jewelry case!

Los Carpinteros' work was recently featured an PBS' Frontline/World in a report about Cuban art.

Other interesting and unusual pieces include Mano Creadora (Creative Hand), a hand shaped set of drawers and La Siesta (The Nap), a [rocking chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pratone-chair) with stacked up pillows that reach the ceiling!

Here are some more grenade-inspired designs:
