A whimsical, Ghibli-style illustration of a weathered buoy mace with chains, rope, seaweed, and a driftwood handle, resting on a sandy beach.

Buoy Mace – A thick, waterlogged driftwood handle knotted with frayed rope for grip, topped with a weathered spherical buoy lashed with steel chains and rope; buoy dented and scarred, peeling red and white paint, rusted iron rings and shackles creating jagged edges, small bits of netting and seaweed hanging, barnacle-encrusted cleat as a blunt point, resting on a sandy beach with scattered shells, soft painterly textures, warm tropical light, portrait-oriented composition, Ghibli-inspired whimsical style, focus on rugged maritime craftsmanship and punishing yet playful design.
