Intellectual property refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols or designs used in commerce. The Dutch horticulturalist's new method for cultivating hybrid tulips and Rolls Royce's "Spirit of Ecstasy" hood ornament design are both examples of symbols or designs used in commerce that are protected as intellectual property. Additionally, album "Wilder Mind" by Mumford & Sons may be protected by copyright law as a literary or artistic work. The sale of Tumi luggage at a Macy's department store does not fall under the category of intellectual property.
