Tiger Wall Art Stickers

Tiger wall stickers need no frame and no fabric: the design goes straight onto the wall, whether it is a tribal tiger head, a tiger stretched out fast asleep or a tiger and a dragon circling each other in a yin and yang. Many of the designs are bold black silhouettes built from strong shapes and fine lines, and some can be ordered in a choice of colors as well as sizes.

How tiger wall stickers draw the animal

A sticker says a lot with a few marks: a set of curved stripes, the line of an eye, a spray of whiskers. That economy is what gives these designs their punch. The Sticker Tiger Tribal builds a front-facing tiger head out of sharp black stripes that curl around the ears and brow like flames, with thin whiskers fanning out below the nose. It comes in black, orange or red, in 42x49cm or 57x66cm.

The Sticker Wild Bengal Tiger takes a more realistic route. It shows a tiger's head and shoulders facing forward, the stripes of its coat trailing off into long, sweeping strokes on either side. It is offered in three sizes, from 44x32cm to 80x59cm, and in nine colors, from black and white to pink, purple, coffee and green.

Resting and walking tigers

Some stickers show the whole body. The Sticker Cute Tired Tiger is a long, low design of a tiger stretched flat on its belly, chin down and eyes closed, with only its striped tail raised upright, as if the rest of it has given up for the day. It comes in three sizes, from 57x22cm up to 147x57cm, keeping the same long shape at each.

The Sticker Tiger Child shows a grown tiger walking straight toward the viewer in thick, rounded black outlines, its banded tail curling up behind it. Other titles in the collection show tigers walking, lying down and at rest, and a few frame the tiger as king of the jungle or as a white tiger.

Tiger and dragon in a yin and yang

The Yin and Yang Sticker is full of fine detail. Inside a single circle, a striped tiger crouches in one half while a scaled, whiskered dragon coils through the other, the two animals following the curve of the classic symbol. It comes in three square sizes: 57x57cm, 80x80cm and 100x100cm.

In Chinese tradition the dragon and the tiger form a classic pair of opposites. The dragon is linked with the east and the tiger with the west, and the two are often shown together, sometimes locked in a struggle and sometimes in balance. Set inside a yin and yang, they read as two halves of one whole.

Colors and sizes across the range

Black is the look of many of the designs, and the color options on some stickers widen the choice considerably. Across the collection, those options include black, blue, coffee, green, orange, pink, purple, red, white and yellow. Sizes run from 28x30cm for the smallest design to 100x100cm and 147x57cm for the largest, and each product lists its own in the options, with many designs offered in more than one.

From sticker to sketchbook

Because a sticker distills the tiger to its key lines, these designs show clearly how the face is built: the dark marks down the brow, the stripes that frame the eyes, the curve of the muzzle and the whiskers. Our guide on how to draw a tiger face walks through those same features step by step, from the first construction lines to the eyes. For a wider look at how artists have shown the animal, from Chinese zodiac imagery to tattoos and art deco, our article on the place of the tiger in art covers the story.

Tiger wall stickers with other wall decor

A sticker is one of several ways to bring a tiger onto the wall. A tiger canvas adds full color and painted detail, from single portraits to five-panel scenes. A tiger tapestry covers a larger surface in fabric, with designs from lotus-framed tiger heads to tigers running through snow. Our tiger lamp collection brings light to the theme with 3D hologram, LED and table lamp designs, some with a remote control. Our tiger decor collection gathers every one of these, along with bedding, rugs, cushion covers and statues.

A guardian in black and white

In many homes the tiger is more than an ornament. In Chinese tradition it is believed to ward off evil spirits, and children's shoes and hats were long decorated with tiger faces for that reason. Chinese folklore also reads the dark marks on a tiger's forehead as the character for king, the same marks that give many of these stickers their strong brow. Those beliefs sit comfortably alongside the most obvious reason of all to want a tiger on the wall: the striking pattern of its coat.

Questions about the stickers

Can the stickers be ordered in other colors?

Some can. The Sticker Tiger Tribal comes in black, orange or red, and the Sticker Wild Bengal Tiger in nine colors. Every product page lists the colors available for that design.

How large are the biggest designs?

The largest sizes in the options are 100x100cm for the round Yin and Yang Sticker and 147x57cm for the long Sticker Cute Tired Tiger.

A few stripes, a pair of eyes and a curl of tail: on a bare wall, that is all a tiger needs to make itself at home.
