Traditional & Old School
The traditional or "Old School" style emerged in the early 20th century and became well-known through artists like Sailor Jerry, who combined bold outlines and vibrant colors into timeless designs. This style has its roots in seafaring and military culture and became especially symbolic of rebellion and individuality during World War II.
Characterized by thick black lines and a limited color palette of red, yellow, green, blue, and black, this style focuses on iconic motifs like anchors, swallows, roses, skulls, animals, and nautical themes. The tattoos are designed to age well and often carry personal or cultural symbolism.
Traditional tattoos have stood the test of time for over a century and continue to be a cornerstone of tattoo art, enjoying great popularity. Our experienced team takes pride in creating timeless designs that honor the roots of this iconic style.
