Chweulebrivi specimen from ParaType

A two-weight Georgian text typeface developed at ParaType in 1994, based on the Gruzinskaya Obyknovennaya photocomposition face originally created for Polygraphmash.

About

Developed at ParaType (then ParaGraph) in 1994, the design draws on Anton Dumbadze's Gruzinskaya Obyknovennaya, a standard Georgian photocomposition typeface. With just Book and Bold weights, it is positioned squarely as a workhorse for continuous Georgian-language text. The historical lineage gives it a traditional character suited to magazine and editorial contexts.

Classification

A Georgian-script text typeface in the traditional upright style, derived from the Gruzinskaya Obyknovennaya photocomposition face. Its design intent for continuous text typography places it firmly in the traditional serif category.
