Celtic tattoo

Interlaced tribal marking

A Celtic tattoo features designs drawn from ancient Celtic art—intricate knotwork, spirals, crosses, and interlacing patterns associated with Irish, Scottish, and Welsh heritage.

The continuous loops of Celtic knots symbolize eternity or interconnection.

Popular since the 1990s tattoo revival, they often express cultural identity or spiritual meaning: He got a Celtic tattoo to honor his Irish grandmother.
