A few weeks ago, we were hanging about the Ara Pacis Museum, admiring that lovely Altar of Peace created for the Roman Emperor Augustus in the first century BC. Upon leaving, we browsed our way through the museum store and came upon a couple of Rome-inspired rings that set our hearts a’pounding.
The SPQR and She-Wolf rings are just a couple of the brilliant Rome-inspired products designed by Luca Lunghini and Monica Kobiakov, founders of Tre Tigri design, a new creative lab based in the Eternal City. Visit the Tre Tigri website to see other products, including flocked iron-on transfers that depict pasta shapes and iconic Roman street sights like the Fiat 500 and the nasoni (or little drinking fountains scattered throughout the city).
To our mind, these little plastic rings are the perfect souvenir for anyone visiting Rome, but they also make a fabulous little gift for anyone who has an undying love of the Eterna. You can pick yours up at any of the following museums and bookstores:
- Musei Capitolini
- Ara Pacis
- Museo Carlo Bilotti
- MACRO
- Museo di Roma in Trastevere
- Mercati di Traiano
- Museo della Civiltà Romana
- Libreria Fahrenheit 451 (Campo dè Fiori)
- Libreria Odradek
- Libreria RGB 46 (Testaccio)
- Libreria Gocce d’Inchiostro (Trastevere)
