Irish Tattoos
June 18, 2008
Blarney! Say some people when they are asked if they think a traditional Irish tattoo would bring them good luck, but there are those who believe branding yourself with a national symbol of luck can do nothing but lend good luck to you.
When it comes to Irish tattoos, there are of course the images of four-leaf clovers and leprechauns that come to mind, but there is a lot more to the Irish heritage then pots of gold and lucky charms. Although shamrocks are one of the most symbolic and popular choices of tattoo art, there are others that celebrate the Irish heritage and Celtic beauty. The Claddaugh, for instance is a representation of a heart held in two hands bearing a crown. It means different things to everyone, and some like it just because of the symmetry and design.
Ireland, known for its Celtic designs and crosses, offers a lot to tattoo receivers to choose from one of the Celtic designs because of the amazing artwork and design that goes into each one of them. Celtic crosses are also a very popular tattoo option that show the beauty of the Celtic design with the symbolism of the cross. Fairies and harps are also very symbolic of Ireland and the Irish people. Harps are deeply rooted in the music of Ireland and are often associated with the land of the emeralds. Fairies are popular with Irish tradition because they were once thought of as beings in the forests of Ireland.
Irish tattoos are as unique as the person getting it, and they can be vast in differences between the quirky leprechaun and pot of gold, to the symbolic and ornate designs of the Celtic inspired artwork. There are numerous resources online to get ideas for what design you would like, and most tattoo shops have galleries of their work on display for you to go through. You can also create your own Irish tattoo based on what you believe it to signify and have one customized for you.
Choosing the right tattoo in general is something you need to really consider and put a lot of time and thought into. You do not want to jump on the latest trend in tattoos and end up with something that you are not happy with. If you are looking for a beautiful and unique design for your tattoo, Irish tattoos might be a great way to go.
