Background

If a sans serif roman and an uncial got together and had a type-baby, it would be Rieven Uncial. While it retains a richness and elegance found in traditional uncial forms, Rieven Uncial has been carefully tempered by designer Steven Skaggs to be much more versatile. The accompanying italic works perfectly well with its uncial cousin despite being structurally quite distinct from it.
