Description

A modern revival typeface that finds its root from the imperial collection of enamelled porcelain (yangcai or “foreign porcelain") of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) of China. In contrast to calligraphic clerical scripts (lishu) found in the imperial collection, this typeface harmoniously blends yet juxtaposes soften-curves and sharpened-tips in key designated stokes.
