Author's note

Variety from Fonts Lab is a free Celtic Gothic display font with tall, uneven letters and sharply changing stroke widths. Rounded forms lean into pointed cuts and crooked joins. The result feels lively and slightly unruly.

Packaging is a strong setting for its handmade, folkloric silhouette, especially on craft drinks or specialty foods. It also suits festival posters and music merchandise that draw on medieval or folk imagery. Those bent strokes and eccentric letterforms connect most directly with Celtic revival themes and theatrical fantasy.
