About Ornamental Tattoos
Ornamental tattooing is pure decoration — adorning the body the way jewelry, lace or carving adorns a surface. Drawing on henna, Islamic pattern and Victorian filigree, it creates flowing, symmetrical work that follows your natural lines.
- Emphasizes pattern, rhythm and placement over depicting a subject
- Common forms: mandalas, lace and filigree, bands, and "jewelry" tattoos
- The best work is designed around your anatomy so it belongs to that exact spot
- Frequently overlaps with geometric and dotwork techniques
- Stunning on the spine, sternum, shoulder, thigh and back of the hand
