About
Chuck Davis adapted Jean Larcher's drawn Roman letterforms into a digital display font with a hand-lettered, calligraphic quality. The character set covers small caps, full punctuation, numerals and accents, making it more complete than many display fonts of its type. Its origins in a lettering manual give it a craft-oriented character suited to titling and decorative applications.
Classification
A decorative Roman alphabet derived from Jean Larcher's hand-lettering, placing it firmly in the display category with a stylised, calligraphic character rather than a conventional text serif.
