Sometimes, but not always, a word written in diwani style can be twisted
into the shape of a drop, like the logo of the newspaper Al Jazeera.
Samples:
 |  |
| "Nicole" | "Michelle" |
| 5 letters | 5 letters |
 |  |
| "Marzouq" | |
| 5 letters | 7 letters |
 |  |
| "Waahidah" | |
| 5 letters | 6 letters |
 |  |
| "waseem" and "waleem" | "Antonio" and "Marta" |
| 10 letters | 12 letters |
Prices: same as shaped diwani... but ask first!
Not all names can be written in this shape.
First problem. If there are many letters, say more than 12, the tattoo will always be as complex (and big) as the "12 letter" sample above.
Second problem. If there are too few letters, say less than five, the design may look too simple.
Third problem. The drawing will have no more loops than letters with long vertical strokes (A L K) in the names. So a name like Stephen ستيفن won't work (Alice Stephen would work, though, because ogf the A and the L).
So, ask me first. I'll tell you if your name works in this shape. If I think it cannot, then you can stil get the kind of curvy letters here, these are called diwani , but there's no material to make the loops so you get some other shape.
