Author's note

VTMeiOrnaments OnCircle by Susan Townsend is a free brush ornament font built from expressive Chinese characters set within solid circular medallions, with lively variations in stroke width and broken, tapering ends. The strokes are brisk, irregular, and distinctly hand painted.

Restaurant branding and martial arts event posters draw on the seal-like silhouette, turning each character into a compact emblem that can function as a logo element, badge, or repeating pattern. It also suits tea packaging and cultural publishing, especially for projects concerned with calligraphy, heritage, seasonal festivals, or traditional craft.
