Originating from Central Asia and later becoming the defining flower of the Netherlands, it carries associations with spring, fresh starts, and fleeting perfection. In European culture, tulips represent honor, reputation, and deep affection.

Originating from centuries-old cultural practices, tribal designs carry symbolic weight through their patterns and placement. Modern tribal tattoos adapt these traditional motifs into contemporary compositions that honor the style's heritage.

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.
