In Writer (3.1.1 currently), how can I bracket two or more list-items

Thus:
List item 1 )
List Item Number 2 ) This text refers to all three items
This is list item number 3 )
The three right braces above should really be "combined into" a
single large
curly bracket vertically centred on item #2. The intention, as I've
indicated, is to have additional text after the bracket, on the same
line as
item #2, which refers to all three items.
I've used a table to contain the items, with a formula or graphic for
the bracket, depending on the exact appearance I need.
Using a table isn't absolutely necessary, but it makes it easy to
adjust the spacing and alignment of the items.
Here are some samples:

Thanks; where do I get the curly bracket graphics from? Or is there an
easy way to make them? How, please?
