This beautiful Bee tile is inspired by an ancient Greek coin (ca. 380 BCE) honoring Artemis the goddess of fertility. Her temple was located in the city of Ephesus and was one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The high priest of the temple was called the "King Bee" and the virgin priestess were called "Melissae" (honey bees). The ancient Greeks and Romans mistakenly believed that the leader of a beehive was a king and not a queen. The Greek letters "E" and "Phi" stand for the city of Ephesus. It was said that the Athenians who colonized the region were led by the Muses who took the shape of bees to guide them. Size: about 4 1/4 inches square and about 3/8 inches thick. My tiles are frost proof stoneware. They are hand-pressed and hand-glazed and no two are exactly alike. I hope you enjoy displaying them as much as I enjoy making them. The tile shown here is hand painted with my soft green satin glaze. There is a notch on the back for hanging.
