Entwined Monograms

Entwined Monograms is designed to make 2-letter monograms this unique decorative style. Inspired by an example of c. 1903 lettering by J. G. Schelter & Giesecke, Leipzig, as reproduced in Treasury of Authentic Art Nouveau Alphabets (Dover, 1984). Characteristic of art of that period, the letters are fanciful and biomorphic.

Each monogram is composed of a wide letter and a tall letter. The wide letters often take the lowercase form and the tall letters, the uppercase, helping to avoid excessive collision. There is an optional frame and two choices for each letter pair for more variety.
