A pair of dice though not considered strictly a mainstream tattoo
enjoys a certain amount of popularity. The design is so appealing also
due to the fact that the pair of dice works well in conjunction with
other design elements. Both genders have shown a liking for this tattoo
design as it is so versatile and interesting.
The history of dice
dates back many thousands of years. Dice have been discovered in the
older civilization and that too made out of interesting things like
bone, wood, stone, ivory and metal. It is a fact that even before the
existence of casinos, dice were being used in Asia and Europe.
The
possibilities of tattoo designs using a pair of dice are endless which
adds to the appeal of this design element. Dice are ubiquitous and can
be found in homes for board games and at casinos at gaming tables. Many
people like to use dice as a piece of decoration on their car or some
have even designed furniture that looks like dice. The fact is that most
people will recognize the dice when they look at it. It is simple
enough to identify with its square shape with six sides and each of the
six sides having dots starting from one dot to six dots. The dot is
supposed to indicate the number with one dot meaning 1 and two dots
meaning 2 and so on till the number 6.
The
roll of a dice and the number that comes up decides the outcome of a
game. This means that luck rules the roll of the dice and thereby dice
are often associated with luck and fortune. The occurrence of the number
7 when it comes in as a total on both the dice is considered very
lucky.
Many people talk about the luck of the draw and the roll of
a dice and this means depending on luck for things to happen, thereby
indicating risk. Many people revel in taking risks and facing dangers to
emerge victorious. These sort of people love to have a dice in their
tattoo designs.
They
can be drawn as a standalone design but can also be an element in a
larger image. They can be shown with chips, cards, diamonds, hearts,
flames, swallows, skulls, black cat or even Lady Luck. The possibilities
for designs with dice are numerous and can be changed as per personal
preference.
Normally dice signify and symbolize a person who likes
taking risks, gambles on outcomes, a good luck charm and in general a
go getter kind of person who is a maverick at heart. When you have a
great design using the dice as the central element you will find that
the tattoo design is exceptional. One of the most sought after dice
design for tattoos is one that is seen as if it is on fire. It indicates
that the dice are good and makes the design pop. Some show the dice
with eyes like that of a snake to show the quick moves of both along
with the chance of losses occurring. Some go with the conventional
design of white and black but in tattoos they are depicted in many
colors.
You
can come up with your own personal design based on your preference and
personal thought process. Pick the elements that mean good fortune for
you and also include elements that look good with the dice to create
your design. The color scheme for the dice can also be unusual instead
of the same conventional color combinations. No matter what design you
decide to go with, do take the time to think, reflect and research
before going in for the tattoo.
