Information

Sapfír (Sapphire in Ukrainian), is a mix between a contemporary approach to a blackletter font design and the cutout shiny aspect of a gem.

Sapfír is a chiselled chimaera designed by mixing the minimal yet unmistakable shapes of Antique Olive font from Roger Excoffon with the vibrant rhythmical patterns of blackletter. Much like the gemstone it's inspired from, its sliced construction produces a multifaceted texture through which the cutting lines often converge and collapse into ligatures.

Just like for gemstones, Sapfír's cuts are intended for different usages related to optical size. You can use it as a small, shiny element of decoration or showcase it as a central “exposition piece” in your design. With three different styles, Caption, Headline & Title, this font family will do wonders in any text layouts whether they be print or digital. Sapfír, a gem that will undoubtedly steal the beholder’s attention.
