Brief History of Rose Tattoos
Roses, originally from Persia (now Iran), were male symbols. Roses are bold and brilliant, so we can see why! Roses, like all flowers, are now considered feminine, although men and women still get them tattooed.
Ever since the modern tattoo, rose tattoos have been popular. To show their love for a lady, such as their mother or girlfriend, males got rose tattoos in the 1930s and early American traditional tattoo style!
Roses usually symbolize affection. Tattoos are frequently more complicated. The rose color you choose can indicate more:
White – innocence
Yellow: friendship
Orange—passion
Pink—sweet femininity
Red: sincere love
Royal lilac
Green—peace
Blue: unrequited love
Black—death
Combining rose ink with another design adds meaning. A rose with a compass could indicate “follow your heart”.
