Calisto 1 | 5 28 Sep 2008 / #1Hello everyone!Im new here, i was looking for a Polish symbol and ended up on this forum. I want a tattoo that represent my Polish heritage.. I know the most wellknown symbol is the white eagle, but its not very femine..Anyone who knows an other Polish symbol? Thanks a lot!!!
LondonChick 31 | 1,133 28 Sep 2008 / #5White eagle is the most obvious one.... what part of Poland are you from? Warsaw... mermaid with a shield perhaps?
JustysiaS 13 | 2,239 28 Sep 2008 / #7i was being serious lol! how about the flag of olsztyn then, click on the link belowor this, its a symbol of olsztyn as well, its the St. Jacob's shell, he's the patron of olsztyn
OP Calisto 1 | 5 28 Sep 2008 / #8yeay a shell is always cute ;)and i just found this picture:showyourmarks.com/images/profiles/DVC00101_1_2.JPGOnly the wings of the eagle.. I like that too.. :)
rdywenur 1 | 157 28 Sep 2008 / #9A Polish Symbol but the shell if anyone looked at it would probably never be recognized or thought of as Polish.How about the Mermaid Syrenka and check this foto.....using only what is inside the center circle and also rather than having it round change the lines of the circle to look like a banner keeping and not changing the inside of the circle. Or since you are from Olystn then use the shell in background with the mermaid forward.

OP Calisto 1 | 5 29 Sep 2008 / #14Polish girls are too tough to be femine ;)but im not 100% Polish so Im very feminine :pI now designed something with the shell of Olsztyn and the wings of the eagle.. I think it looks nice!
