I made this full-page border using some of the astrological and occult signs and symbols from the table Names of Angels and Days; the table is not square, so niether is this border, for a more antique look.

What pens please Liam? E.g. rhs, third from bottom? Italic, but held at an odd angle (or the paper tilted?)
I like it’s simplicity!

Actually this was from an engraving, probably on steel; I didn’t draw it, but rather, moved items around to make the border.

If there was an exemplar for the engraver, it’s likely a fine crow quill or a steel copper-plate italic pen was used.
I’m glad you liked it!
Liam
