Rose Bud Design

A rose caught before the bloom, petals still furled tight on a thorned stem. Bud-stage roses carry their own meaning, promise rather than arrival, which makes this a quieter alternative to the classic open rose tattoo.

Size & Placement

At 4.3 x 7 inches the stem runs elegantly along a forearm, collarbone, or ankle. Wear it stem-down along the forearm and the bud sits just below the elbow crease, a placement that reads as deliberate as a permanent piece.

Semi-Permanent Ink, No Needles

The design applies as semi-permanent ink: 24 hours to develop, up to 10 days of wear, then a clean natural exit.
