Specimen Californya
Note. Specimen of the typeface Californya. Copyright by Typo5.

Californya draws inspiration from various 16th-century manuscripts and is completely reimagined through an extensive set of hand-drawn characters. Each character is rich in detail, capturing the expression and style of authentic calligraphy. It brings genuine passion to whatever you write. It is available in four versions: Californya A, Californya B, Californya C, and Californya Xtensions (which includes a collection of ornaments, ligatures, and ink strokes). Each version comes in both Regular and Bold styles, totaling eight fonts. You can mix and match characters across versions to unlock a wide range of possibilities and create beautiful lettering.
