Introducing Killer Silver Tattoo Studio
Why Killer Silver Tattoo Studio Exists
Caesar The Hun has run Caesar Tattoo in the East Village since 2008. It’s a one-man studio with one kind of work at its core: large-scale black and gray sessions of five hours or more, in his signature LEGENDS style. That focus is exactly what makes those pieces possible.
But it also means saying no to people who want something smaller. A name, a meaningful symbol, a first tattoo, a piece that fits into a single afternoon. The books are full, so there’s simply no room in the schedule for them.
Turning good people away doesn’t sit right with Caesar. That’s why he started Killer Silver Tattoo Studio: a professional studio for exactly the tattoos Caesar Tattoo can’t take, with the same standard behind every one.
Two Studios, One Address
Killer Silver Tattoo Studio LLC is Caesar’s new company, and it shares the Caesar Tattoo space at 172 Avenue B, New York, NY 10009. Sharing one roof keeps overhead down. As a result, the money goes into the work instead of the rent.
Still, the two studios stay separate, and Caesar owns both outright. Caesar Tattoo remains his private practice for large-scale black and gray pieces of five hours or more. Killer Silver Tattoo Studio, on the other hand, is the open door for everything that fits into a shorter session.
A Small Team for Every Style
Caesar is building Killer Silver around a small creative group of four to five artists. He picks them for how they work together, not just for what they can do. The goal is a relaxed, respectful studio for artists and clients alike. In other words, Killer Silver aims to handle every style that walks through the door, from delicate fine-line work to large-scale color realism.
The Showroom for Killer Silver Ink
Killer Silver Tattoo Studio is also the showroom for Killer Silver Ink, which Caesar’s own company makes. Its centerpiece is the Se7en Deadly Shades gray-wash set. Since 2013, CTL, an accredited laboratory in Germany, has independently certified it, testing for cancer-causing ingredients, heavy metals and banned dyes.
In the U.S., no law requires lab testing before tattoo ink reaches your skin. Even so, Killer Silver gets its ink tested.
Finding the Studio on Avenue B
First, look for the black-and-silver Killer Silver Tattoo Studio sign above the window at 172 Avenue B. There’s no open shopfront to walk into. Instead, the studio sits off the street in a private space for long, uninterrupted sessions. That keeps it calm and focused inside, but it also makes it easy to walk past. So book ahead or call before you come.
