Bee and Stag of Ephesus

This keyring unites two of the most recognisable emblems of the ancient city of Ephesus on a single piece: a bee on one side and a stag on the other. Both motifs originate from historical coin minting and are closely tied to the cult of the goddess Artemis. Rendered in detail on a sturdy metal keyring, the design turns an everyday item into a small piece of classical antiquity, easy to attach to keys, a bag, or a backpack, with either side visible depending on how it's carried. It's a distinctive everyday accessory for anyone drawn to ancient history and culture, and a fitting memento of the ancient collections held at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna.
