Henk Schiffmacher - Royal Blue Tattoo

This collection is a unique collaboration between tattoo artist Henk Schiffmacher and Royal Delft. At first glance, perhaps not the most obvious combination. But both use traditional crafts, which originated in a distant ancient world and were brought here from overseas. Both use ink to apply a unique work of art, with a needle in the skin or with a brush on biscuit.
The Schiffmacher Royal Blue Tattoo collection consists of both hand-painted items and transferred pieces.

Rock of Ages Tile

During a fierce storm in Burrington Combs, England, in 1763, a terrified preacher's wife sat in a rock crevice, waiting for the bad weather to pass. In her fear, she felt so close to God that she wrote the hymn Rock of Ages. It is one of the great themes that you repeatedly see in tattooing. The image symbolizes the last place where the sailor can come as a castaway. Many see this as the time of death.

About Royal Delft

Royal Delft is also known as Porceleyne Fles. This pottery factory has been creating high-quality Delft Blue products since 1653. It is the only remaining pottery factory from the 17th century in Delft that still produces traditional hand-painted porcelain.
The craft of painting is still central, but over time, various techniques have been added. For example, the transfer process is widely used, where an image is printed on the ceramics with a screen print. This creates a high-quality product that is more affordable than the hand-painted collection.
