This package provides a collection of vector ornaments. The idea originates from the psvectorian package by Patrick Fradin, and many elements are inspired by it. I am grateful to Vincent Le Moign for allowing me to distribute these ornaments in the PGF/TikZ format.

The archive includes 89 vector ornaments, all defined in a format compatible with TikZ. They were extracted from an EPS file available on the website vectorian.net, where you can also find a free sample of the original collection. Thanks to the generosity of the original author, these ornaments can be shared in PGF format. Please consider visiting his website to discover more of his work.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Patrick Fradin for granting permission to use his work, and to Enrico Gregorio for his valuable suggestions and helpful ideas.
