永遠の友 eien no tomo Friends Forever

永遠の友 is a friend for all time, an eternal friend. 友 does not mark number, so the phrase can also mean friends forever, the sense of the English title.

The Japanese phrase 永遠の友 meaning "Friends Forever" is composed of the words 永遠 (read eien) meaning "eternity; forever" and 友 (read tomo) meaning "friend; companion".

Each design is Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase's hand-brushed calligraphy of the word or phrase on this page, delivered as a PDF you can print. Every PDF includes the line art, so a tattoo artist or a craftsperson can work from the outline as well as the brushed image.

Your purchase includes a personal-use license: use the design as a tattoo reference, frame it, engrave it, print it for yourself, or make it into a gift. For more information see Licensing, which also covers commercial-use options that may be purchased separately.
