About
Black Copal draws on the legacy of amateur calligraphy, tracing a lineage from the blackletter scripts of Western Europe through to the American continent. The foundry frames it as a modest, memory-hewn form, passed between cultures rather than institutionally refined. Suited to display work where historical gravity and handmade warmth are both required.
