Engraved Floral and Insect-Themed Botanical Strips for Decorative Borders and Frames
This image is part of a beautiful collection of highly detailed, engraved illustrations from the early 1800s - Originally discovered within a small book full of stories inspired by the English countryside. While I’m sure the stories are lovely, I couldn’t get over how incredible these illustrations were!

VINTAGE Decorative Design Elements – Ornamental Banners For Type
The type foundry and print shop of old would create books, like the one this image was discovered within, to help customers and clients with their design choices. Naturally, these books were jam packed with useful illustrative elements that could be combined to create a final piece. Today, these books are extremely difficult to get a hold of. Especially those that were published in the late 1800s. They were not mainstream publications, they simply served as 'catalogs' and thus were only produced in small numbers. Fortunately, we were introduced to a collector who had precisely what we had been searching for for so long. After some costly negotiations, we're very excited to be able to share the wonderful gems within.
