International maritime signal flags are a way for ships to communicate with each other - each flag represents a letter or number and can be strung together to send a message as far as the eye (or telescope!) can see. They are more easily identifiable from a distance than letters. 

The compass rose, sometimes called a rose of the winds, is a beautiful and timeless symbol of direction, discovery, and awakening. The four directions of the compass rose represent infinite possibilities, the past, the present, and the future. This symbol was once believed by sailors to bring them good luck. They also believed it to bring them back home safely. It is a celebrated symbol of guidance through troubled seas and unfamiliar places.
