Here is a superb pen flourished tree branch with an engraved bird standing on it. You must zoom in to see the extraordinary pen strokes and feathers on this one. So elegantly beautiful! An amazing engraved Flower Fairy with a pen flourished bird is seen above. WOW, this one is gorgeous. I love the petal skirt especially. It would make a great baby announcement I believe.Here is a charming pen flourished birds in a horseshoe. I think this would be a great one for a wedding, since the birds are shown in a pair and the horseshoe is a symbol of good luck. You could even write the couple’s names on the banner! The intricate detail on this one is amazing!
Above we have another delightful scene created with lovely pen strokes. It includes a swimming swan, two singing birds, and a butterfly in the air. There is even a tree. Lovely detailed plants and grasses as well. Such an impressive expression of Nature’s bounty I think! Great for your Spring projects.
Old Calligraphy Bird Banners and Labels
This image is page one of the Penmanship book. Above you will see beautiful flourished birds and a lovely banner with the words “presented by” on it. It also features a wonderful Friendship poem. Here is a delightful pen flourished bird. She is standing on a lovely scroll paper. Wouldn’t this be beautiful used on a Wedding invitation?Here is a fabulous engraved Spencerian bird with banner. It is unusual to find one that is multi-colored like this. It is the only one in the entire book that is not black and white. This is another nice one to use for labels and tags as it has a blank space on the banner for writing in.
This is such a sweet pen flourished bird with swirls. It is a cleaned up version of the original. I think this would also be a great one for a wedding or shower. You could personalize the banner that’s tucked just under the bird.
How cute is this pen flourished bird on a branch? Tucked just under the bird where you could add some text is a banner or ribbon. It would be cute to use for DIY place cards!
This one is not actually a pen flourished image at all. It is actually an engraving of a fabulous bird with banner in roses and other flowers. It would make gorgeous Spring notecards!
Aren’t these lovely!! This Vintage image is from an 1880’s book, and shows two pretty pen flourished birds along with a ribboned banner! I think this one would work great for Wedding stationery.
Spencerian Peacock Images
Above is an amazing Spencerian Calligraphy peacock with a magnificent pen flourished tail. He is standing proudly with his tail completely unfurled behind him. The strokes on this one are exquisite.
Here we have a beautiful pen flourished peacock with garland. His wonderful tail is flowing down among grasses and vines. You could add your own wording to the garland if you like using photoshop, or just print it and write something in by hand.

Oh my goodness, who is the author of that book?! What’s it called??
graphicsfairy says
So sorry but Karen is on vacation but she said it didn’t have a title or author. It was very old and rare it was an instructional tool for learning how to pen flourish.

Even that little bit is still very interesting. Thank you for your reply.
