Ta moko , is a primitive pacific island tattooing ritual , denoting rank and honor, practiced by traditional maori.

As tradition blends with the present , these symbols can be worn by all, with special pride and personal meaning. International travelers intrigued with our country and culture are often our best clients , compelled to take home the permanent new zealand experience .

To offer the most comprehensive information of maori tattooing, we have spoken and studied with, Maori carvers, weavers, anthropologists and historians .

Initial consultations contain a brief history and modern day analysis of this primitive art form. We can assist in developing a personalized, custom tattoo designed with a contemporary style with the safety of specialized hygienic technology. At the end of the procedure you receive a copy of you tattoo with full interpretive notes of how the composition and symbols relate to your own personal story.

The following portfolio is just a small example of some of the work we have created in our studio for clients both local and abroad.  maori best tattoo maori tattooist  elton buchanan cover up free porn
