Spiral Tattoo Photo #20959

The spiral appears in Neolithic stone carvings, Celtic manuscripts, and Polynesian tapa cloth-always representing cycles, growth, and the journey from center to edge. As a tattoo the spiral carries mathematical elegance and deep cultural roots in a compact geometric form.

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 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.
