Splendid ES Font

Splendid ES by ES Typography is a free high-contrast calligraphy font with long, assured pen strokes. Its steeply slanted letters move between broad downstrokes and hairline joins. Large loops and sweeping flourishes give the writing a formal, theatrical air.

Wedding invitations are its strongest setting, especially for names and prominent lines that benefit from the expansive capitals. The same elegance suits perfume packaging and boutique branding, where the lettering can function much like a hand-drawn signature. It also belongs on concert programs and fashion editorials, with its fluid strokes echoing fabric, ribbons, or other graceful imagery.
