Blackletter

Blackletter fonts feature the dense, angular, and ornate letterforms inspired by medieval European calligraphy, including styles like Textura, Fraktur, and Schwabacher. They're commonly used for newspaper mastheads, beer and whiskey labels, tattoo lettering, metal band logos, certificates, and designs that call for a Gothic, historical, or dramatic aesthetic. Graphic designers, breweries, musicians, and anyone seeking old-world authority or dark elegance will find these fonts especially useful.
