The rose is definitely one of the most recognized symbols in all of the world and is also a pretty celebrated one too especially in western cultures which is almost equal to the prominence of a lotus flower in the eastern cultures. The rose has had a long list of mentions in poems and songs as well as many famous paintings too. However, in most recent times, it has also been a huge part of the tattoo culture.

Getting a rose tattoo is one of the most intriguing parts of the tattoo world because you can control however way you want the design. You can get a tiny and petite design that might be private to you or you can go all the way to cover up your back and chest. There are no restrictions on these and the possibilities are endless. You can mean something with your rose flower tattoo design or can just let it be.

Each design is different; for instance with rose tattoos one might believe that a rose tattoo will involve a flower implanted into the surface of your skin. But while the “rose” may rest at the core of the design, the application and depiction will present it as uniquely yours.

Every picture or logo in the universe of tattoos includes a purpose. With the shift in thinking and understanding of cultures over the decades, the eyepiece through which tattoos are perceived and deciphered has also altered.
