A gemstone-themed display typeface in two styles, Cut and Rough, with colour font and variable font versions tracing the full journey of a faceted stone from mine to market.
About
Schijn divides into two distinct styles: Cut, with 16 styles across Shallow, Middle and Deep cuts, and Rough, with 9 styles evoking unpolished stone. The family includes dingbats, small capitals, old style numerals and stylistic alternates across 580 characters, with European Latin language support throughout. The Complete package adds colour font versions of both Cut and Rough styles, plus a variable font version of Cut.
Classification
Schijn is a display typeface with heavily stylised letterforms modelled on faceted gemstones, making it an ornamental decorative display font with no conventional body text application.
