Heirloom: an upright cursive handwriting font for family letters
Upright, round and unhurried: the cursive of someone who learned penmanship at school and still takes their time.
What Heirloom looks like
- Joined cursive that stands nearly upright, with round, open letters.
- No two letters print exactly alike, so a page reads like one person’s hand.
- One page holds about 22 lines of your message (a plain letter, before a date or return address).
- Accents: English, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian.
- How it prints: as fine single lines, in black ink on our letter paper.
When to choose Heirloom
- Letters to grandkids and family
- Birthday and holiday letters
- Thank-yous that should feel old-fashioned in the best way
On have it printed, people write letters you write online and we print and mail. Pick the style that sounds like you, and it prints the same on every page.
Reading it
Joined and fairly upright with open loops. Cursive suits readers who are used to it; for someone who prefers print, pick a print style.
Stationery that suits Heirloom
- Laurel: An engraved-style laurel wreath as a full-page watermark, with a small wreath and star and your name in capitals at the head.
- Muguet: A sprig of lily of the valley, given for the return of happiness, drawn in an engraved style over ’Get Well Soon’.
- Olea: An olive branch drawn in our own engraved-style line work, set like a botanical plate with its Latin name, and your name beneath.
