Koru, Hei Matau, and Hei Tiki are some of the symbols used in the Maori tattoos. Each symbol has a different meaning. Mostly you will see the round or spiral patterns with these tattoos. But there is no denying that these tattoos have also very much become the part of the fashion statement. These are pretty unique tattoos and hence not seen quite often. If you want small tattoo you can pick a single element and get it inked in the body. However, the true nature of these tattoos is revealed with larger tattoos covering large portion of the body.
