Default Reef safe decorations

We came across a decoration yesterday that I am in LOVE with and would love to incorporate into the live rock when we add it to the tank, however-is there such a think as saltwater safe-reef decorations? if there is, how can confirm that, that particular one is? I never thought of ever putting anything but rock and livestock-however it's hard to put this one down.

It wasn't initially meant to go in the tank. It was meant to be part of our home decor, but now I'm wondering.

If your looking to be real adventurous super glue some coral to that bad boy, makes for one heck of a center piece when its grown in.

That would look awesome with some coral growing off it.

What about Mount Wannakockaloogie?

If a person could find a sunkin ship or plane decoration like this that would look sweet in a reef.

Honestly though, it does not look very "reefy". How about something that is really meant to be in a saltwater tank? I have put some artificial sponges in my reef that look quite real and understanding how difficult it is to maintain non-photosynthetic sponges (nearly impossible) in a reef, I went with artificial ones from here:

and here is a pic of my tank with the artificial sponges in it, as the oranges sponges:
