Tribal rose tattoos combine the best of both worlds, and when thoughtfully designed, can add timeless perfection to the canvas. Whether combining two previously designed pieces, or inventing your own tribal rose tattoo, the wearer simply needs to decide which aspect will dominate, or if the boldness of the tribal work will battle with the power of the rose. Will one force completely overwhelm the other so that the entire design appears to be focused on one single aspect? Some designs can take on the elegant scrolling swirls of Copperplate calligraphy, while other creations can create a near optical illusion where one must decide whether they are looking at a rose or the flames shooting from a dragon’s mouth. The beauty of tribal rose tattoos is definitely in the eye of the wearer.
To get a full understanding of why tribal rose tattoos are becoming increasingly more desirable, it’s helpful to know some of the meanings behind each aspect. First, the rose. The constant muse of poets, artists and authors, this flower doesn’t just represent all things beautiful and delicate. In the religious realm, the rose can symbolize the blood of Christ, or spiritual growth. It can be a sign of martyrdom or a symbol of respect for a deceased friend or family member. The rose, black in color, can also hold significance for anarchists and other outspoken political groups.
