There are hundreds of thousands of tattoo pictures online. Maybe millions. But with this rise in popularity, it's getting even harder than ever to tell the difference between a quality piece of art and a piece that will fade into a black smudge. Learn to tell the difference now so you don't have to learn the lesson the hard way.


The last authentic Haida tattoo kit left.

Housed at the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of Natural History. The set was collected by James G. Swan during his time with the Haida people.

The set contains: 5 cedar poking tools, a lump of magnetite (used as pigment), 4 carved brushes and a bowl used to mix the pigment.
