Stella1952 Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Those are called printer's ornaments. Those are specific to that person's site and have been animated. You can find others by checking out "dingbat" and "symbol" fonts. In addition Dover Publications has many public domain images, fonts, dingbats, printer's ornaments, etc. from the art nouveau and art deco period.

There's a "swirlie thingie" but not the same. I'll keep browsing, as I am for certain I've seen something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazerina Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Publisher has some clip art in it similar. But I believe they are attatched to a boarder or other line element.Still not sure what they are called though. I would associate them with victorian and something called Fleur De Lis (sp?)
