Vasa never expected to find both a lover & a sparing partner when she pulled a certain bladesinging wizard out of a stone.

Askos, 200–1 BCE, Greece, Ptolemaic Dynasty,
This miniature vessel was carved from a single piece of banded agate, polished to a shine, and embellished with a gold lid and gold details on the base. Inside the ring of gold at the base is a trio of gold papyrus stalks, a likely reference to Egypt.
In shape, it resembles an ancient wineskin, or askos, though its small size suggests use for luxury perfumes or oils. A tiny crab, likely once inlaid with a precious material, has been carved behind the handle.
Agate and gold, 6.5 cm.

The History Behind the Famous Sunken Swedish 'Vasa' Warship That Was Recovered Over 300 Years Later

The Vasa a Swedish Warship constructed under orders by King Gustavus Adolphus Of Sweden. It Was A Powerful Warship Built In ( 1626 / 1627 )
It set sail on the 10th of Aug - 1628 . It also sunk on the same date only a thousand or so metres into it's journey. Apparently the ship was very top heavy and anything more than a stiff breeze was enough to sink it 🙄. The ship did look impressive though and after recovering it from the harbour in Stockholm they created the Vasa museum to house it. This museum is well worth a visit. 😁
I'll add some pictures along with a video to explain a little more about the history of the ship 😊.
These are pictures of a model of the ship :
Here's some pictures of the ship itself only with slightly less paint on it . Being at the bottom of the ocean tends to do that 🤔.
