A vase is a heraldic symbol that has been used by the Swedish and Polish-Lithuanian House of Vasa. It has been used as a symbol of the Swedish state even after the extinction of the Vasa lineage, and was reused in 1818 as part of the coat of arms of Sweden. The vase has been used by other families, both noble and common, and is still in use by the government-owned real estate enterprise Vasakronan.
