There are so many different types to choose from, but here are a few of the most common, and a basic definition behind the ink:                                                            fruit3

Cherry: This type of ink has come to represent feminine chastity, beauty, and purity as the fruit ripens on the tree. Once plucked from the vine a cherry represents the loss of innocence and virtue. A cherry tat surrounded in flames speaks of unquenchable desire, passion and lust.

Strawberries: Just like cherries, strawberries are a tat design that is primarily favored by females. This luscious, bright red image is a symbol of fertility, temptation, and passion. So if you want to wear some ink that has special meaning or that depicts your femininity, a design of a strawberry would be a wise choice!

fruit42Apple: The image of an apple has been used for a long time to symbolize knowledge, fertility, sexuality, as well as temptation and sin. One cut in half horizontally is thought to represent the female sexual organs, while an apple cut vertically resembles a star or pentagram shape that usually symbolizes knowledge.

Of course, you might have your own meanings and feelings associated with this type of ink. There are so many possibilities for a cool, funky tat. Let your imagination fly and have some fun with fruit tattoos.
