    I looked up palmette and saw a feature of art deco buildings that I haven’t really seen in tattoos, then looked up “palmette” tattoo and even with the quotes, it was all saw palmettos. What’s a palmette tattoo look like?

        That’s the architectural feature that came up, so I probably spelled it correctly, but it was the same as how I spelled it in the comment.

        I have never seen that kind of tattoo before and many of my friends would probably be considered goth (but we’re olds and I’m not observant). Does it reference something?
