Chaucer Font

Chaucer is a masterfully crafted blackletter display font designed by Manos Pitsidianakis, inspired by William Morris’ Chaucer typeface as it appeared in the iconic Kelmscott Chaucer edition — one of the most celebrated examples of the Arts and Crafts book arts movement. This typeface channels centuries of gothic typographic tradition into a form that retains all the dramatic visual weight and intricate detail of medieval lettering. Supporting 40 languages, Chaucer is ideal for display use in contexts that call for historical gravitas, dark elegance, or artisanal authenticity — from book covers to editorial headers and heritage branding.
Chaucer is a wonderful example of the richly detailed display fonts available for free creative use. Whether you’re designing for editorial, branding, or atmospheric projects, our collection has something for every aesthetic.
