Shrewsbury Initials

by Paul Lloyd · Website

Shrewsbury Initials is a decorative uppercase font by Paul Lloyd where each letter sits inside an ornamental box with fine hatched shading, evoking the illustrated drop caps found in Victorian-era books and printed ephemera. The engraved, vintage quality of the letterforms makes them ideal for chapter headings, monograms, and decorative initials in editorial or heritage-themed work. Like most initials fonts, it's built to be used sparingly and at large sizes where the intricate detail can come through.
