Lotus Mandala Nape Crest

Description

This bold blackwork mandala sits between the shoulder blades and rises into the nape. Layered lotus-like petals, crisp linework, and dense dotwork create depth and symmetry, echoing sacred geometry. The mandala motif traditionally symbolizes balance, protection, and inner harmony, while lotus petals suggest growth and enlightenment. Subtle gradients soften the edges and anchor the piece along the spine, making it a striking ornamental centerpiece on the upper back.
