Typographic ornament
A cul-de-lampe is a typographic ornament, sometimes called a pendant, specifically a tailpiece in the shape of a triangle marking the end of a section of text. It may be a single illustration or assembled from fleurons. Alternatively, it may consist of text where each line becomes progressively shorter. For example, this is a cul-de-lampe ornament made with asterisks:
"Cul-de-lampe" is French for 'bottom of the lamp', from the shape of the ornament. The plural is "culs-de-lampe".
