Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai,.... which, with the Persians, was a token of the strongest affection and strictest friendship z; the Targum calls it his signatory ring, that with which he signed laws, edicts, letters, patents, c. and so hereby made him keeper of the seals:
and Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman appointed him her steward of the estate of Haman, the king had given her.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
His ring - i. e. the royal signet by which the decrees of the government were signed.
Over the house of Haman - Not only the building and the furniture, but the household - the vast train of attendants of all kinds that was attached to the residence of a Persian noble.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Esther 8:2. The king took off his ring — In the ring was the seal of the king. Giving the ring to Mordecai was tantamount to giving him the seal of the kingdom, and constituting him the same as lord chancellor among us.
