A tall, high-contrast display serif with curling spurs on its stems, for spice labels, menus and book covers
Spice Caravan is a narrow, high-contrast display serif dressed in Victorian ornament. Hairline strokes meet heavier stems, and small curls sprout from the middle of the verticals like vines climbing an old shop sign. The capitals go further. S, C and F end in swash curls, and most other capitals grow spurs on both sides of the stem, which gives a word the look of an apothecary label or a merchant's tin from a market stall.
Give it room. The detail lives in thin lines, so it works at headline size on packaging for spices, tea and coffee, on restaurant and café menus, wine labels, book covers and posters for markets or food festivals. In long paragraphs the curls start to crowd each other.
