They work across styles-from Japanese irezumi to Chinese motifs to Western fantasy. A well-planned dragon tattoo can be a statement piece that flows with the body, or a compact symbol that carries personal meaning.

The wrist offers a compact area that suits fine-line work, small symbols, and script. Its visibility means the tattoo becomes part of daily life, always in the wearer's line of sight.
