Tile - Tattoo Shop (Schiffmacher Royal Blue Tattoo):

A sailor having the name of his girl Louise tatooed in the first harbour tatto shop he passed by.

A famous tattoo sailors wear on their arms now on a beautiful tile as a piece of home decoration, designed by tattoo artist Henk Schiffmacher in collaboration with Royal Delft.



Cooperation Henk Schiffmacher and Royal Delft
Delft Blue pottery and tattoos may not be the most obvious combination, but they have more in common than thought. Parallels can be found in origin, meaning, craft and mastery.

The Schiffmacher Royal Blue Tattoo collection is a unique collaboration between two traditional crafts from an ancient world. Sea brought here from the east. Rich in culture, tradition and symbolism. Art forms that are applied manually once. With a needle in the skin or with a brush on the biscuit.

Especially for this collaboration, Henk Schiffmacher has designed a number of unique objects with the master painters of Royal Delft, where the two worlds literally touch. The Schiffmacher Royal Blue Tattoo collection consists of both hand-painted items and transferred pieces.

Layered, deeply rooted and with respect, an ode to Delft Blue and the art of tattooing.
