History
with a degree in graphic design and a few good teachers, Peter Twigt opens his first shop
in the Nieuwe Nieuwstraat; Amsterdam in 1983.
In 1986 he opens, forced by new houses being build, ‘Amsterdam Tattooing’ at the current location on the Nieuwe Zijds Armsteeg 4 in Amsterdam.
Shop
The shop is decorated with a lot of traditional Japanese work and has a large group of steady costumers for specialist work. Also Amsterdam Tattooing has a big group of costumers that come in to get their first tattoo done.
In the last twenty years the shop went trough a lot of metamorphoses. The ground floor is now divided in a welcoming-area and Peters spot of tattooing.
On the second floor only the tattoo artists work. Since the end of 2008 we now have an extra floor especially for piercing, sterilizing and tattoo removal . This gives the costumer and the artists more comfort.
