Tattoo illustrations on luxury English bone china wares

Tattoos have for centuries shocked, inspired and fed the imagination. It is an art form that crosses every boundary of culture, gender and geography and is today more popular in the west than at any time in history.
The Inkhead range designed by Florian Hutter for The New English features an intense rose skull tattoo, capturing our continuous fascination with tattoo prints and skull inspirations.

 Made from English bone china in Stoke-on-Trent, the illustrations on these cups and flatwares are applied using a multi-layer, multi screen printing process to create extraordinary tonal depth.

The mug shown above is without the added gilding making it suitable for everyday use.
