Chrysanthemum Tattoo Photo #11583

In Japan, the chrysanthemum holds imperial significance and represents autumn, while in Chinese culture it connects to a life lived with integrity. The flower's many layered petals also suggest complexity and depth of character.

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 chest is a bold placement choice that stays mostly concealed under clothing. Its proximity to the heart makes it a popular spot for meaningful symbols, text, and portrait work.
