Some people choose specific verses-often displayed as a decorative scroll-that mark a turning point in their life. Others use symbolic imagery-crosses, doves, fish symbols, or hands in prayer-to represent their beliefs without explicit text.

Inspired by jewelry, architecture, and textile patterns, ornamental tattoos create intricate, decorative compositions on the skin. Precision and symmetry are key, giving these pieces an almost meditative quality.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
