Author's note

Caslon Calligraphic Initials font by Caslon Initials is a free calligraphic decorative typeface. Each letter unfurls with sweeping, ribbon-like curves and crisp inky strokes, like something lifted from an antique title page. The generous swashes and looping forms feel ceremonial and handcrafted, made to be seen up close.

Using Caslon Calligraphic Initials, you can set ornate drop caps, wedding monograms, invitations, certificates, book covers, and luxury packaging that need a single letter to carry the mood. This free font shines at larger sizes; pair its flowing initials with a quiet serif or sans for supporting text.
