Nested Bowls Tattoo Meaning

Generational support, nurture, family, and one holding the other.

Nested Bowls are one generation holding and cradling the next — the vessels that fit one within another, each supported by the larger that holds it. To carry the Nested Bowls is to carry generational support, nurture, family, and one holding the other — the loving arrangement in which the greater cradles the smaller, each held and holding in turn.
