Old Swords Wabori

Welcome to the Dublin workshop of Old Swords. We specialize exclusively in traditional Japanese Wabori and hand-painted sumi-e artwork. We work in a quiet, focused environment, prioritizing depth of craft over modern trends.

Wabori Projects

Sumi Paintings

By Appointment

Dedicated entirely to large-scale traditional Japanese tattooing. We focus on full backpieces, sleeves, and complete body suits, utilizing classic motifs designed to flow naturally with the body and age beautifully over decades.

Original hand-painted sumi-e artwork created with traditional sumi ink on heavy textured paper. Available for direct gallery acquisition or custom commissions depicting classic Japanese folklore, dragons, and natural motifs.

The Dublin workshop operates strictly by appointment to ensure complete privacy and focus. Consultations are scheduled in advance to discuss the historical gravity of your chosen motifs and plan the layout.
