Vatican Rough Letters, 8th c.

by Flight of the Dragon · Website

Vatican Rough Letters, 8th c. is an uncial display face from Flight of the Dragon that recreates the rough, hand-cut letterforms found in 8th-century ecclesiastical manuscripts. The characters have an uneven, weathered quality that feels genuinely aged rather than artificially distressed, with ornate strokes rooted in early medieval calligraphic traditions. Best reserved for headlines, drop caps, and historical or religious-themed design work where period authenticity matters.
