Black Chancery

by Doug Miles

Black Chancery is a formal calligraphic face by Doug Miles, modeled after the italic chancery scripts used in medieval and Renaissance documents. The letterforms have a deliberate, pen-drawn elegance with pointed terminals and flowing strokes that feel rooted in tradition rather than nostalgia. It works best in headlines, invitations, and decorative contexts where you want classical authority with a calligrapher's hand.
