Tiger Symbolism Across Cultures The tiger is one of the most powerful animals in body art, carrying centuries of symbolic weight across civilizations. In Chinese culture, the tiger is a celestial guardian representing bravery, authority, and protection.

With thick black outlines and flat, saturated colors, traditional tattoos are built to last. The straightforward approach prioritizes readability and impact, making these designs recognizable from a distance.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
