BLACK ROSE TATTOO

Welcome to The Black Rose Tattoo Emporium Website

Black Rose Tattoo Emporium has been providing quality Tattooing & Piercing since 1993. It is our mission to create living works of art that our clients can be proud of.

We believe the best way to achieve this goal is to discuss the design with the client and then make an informed judgment on size, placement etc.

Black Rose Tattoo is an international and national award winning tattoo studio and we endeavour to match the tattoo to the client.

On our website is information about the history of the studio and help on deciding what sort of tattoo you may want to get and how to look after it once you have been inked.

We also have information on piercing and some of the jewellery we sell at Black Rose.

The Gallery on our website shows some of the work we offer and the endless possibilities that are available to you the client

One of the top three tattoo shops in Canterbury, from ta moko to tribal. We have recently updated our image gallery, now with over a million designs in our fully computerized studio.
