This afternoon I was investigating the most remote places of Tumblr in search of different classic style tattoos (old school) when I have come across a type of tattoo that the truth is not talked about much and it has always caught my attention . I speak of the kewpie wrist tattoos. By simply taking a look at the images that accompany this article you will know what type of tattoos I mean.
While to talk about the kewpie wrist tattoos, we must first talk about your history. Created by Rose O'Neill, an illustrator of children's novels, books and magazines, Kewpie dolls are characterized by their expressions and facial features. They came to the market around Christmas in 1909. At that time they were all a rage and quickly gained followers.
Continuing with its symbolism and meaning that its creator wanted to give it, kewpie doll tattoos symbolize love as well as innocence. As for their size, they can vary from a few centimeters to several meters in height. Always without losing that childish and innocent character. Kewpie dolls are easily distinguished by their round faces, rosy cheeks, and bulging bellies.
And although the first kewpie dolls were naked, today they can be found dressed up as different characters from popular fairy tales or for very important calendar parties such as Halloween.
