Author's note

Jugendstil Caps by Manfred Klein is a free Art Nouveau initial font built from ornate letterforms enclosed in square botanical frames. Curving stems, leaves, and petal shapes dominate each tile.

A heritage soap or perfume brand could use these compact emblems across packaging and labels, where the lettering becomes part of the ornament. Their dense, hand-cut appearance also suits exhibition posters and decorative book covers with a turn-of-the-century theme. Invitations and event programs offer another fitting setting, especially when the initials can function like small floral illustrations.
