Introducing Beeswacks

Hello, Simple Friends. Today, we're announcing the official release of our latest typeface, Beeswacks!

Beeswacks is a vintage-esque, display sans-serif based on a handful of letters found on an old box of candles made by Columbia Wax Works in Ozone Park, New York. Like a lot of other old lettering, this one spoke to me, particularly the wide M, R, and S.

Found via Purveyors of Packaging

We took those capital letters as guidance in filling out a whole alphabet that retains the worn, hand-painted vibes from the candle box. Beeswacks will be fantastic for logos, posters, signage, branding, etc.

Beeswacks comes in a single weight and includes upper & lowercase letters, numerals, punctuation, diacritics with expanded language support, as well as some alternate character icons and script-y, discretionary ligatures for the words theofinatandfor.

Beeswacks is available now, individually in our shop or join our Secret Club™ and get ALL of our fonts + other perks for just $60/year.

Thanks for your support! Enjoy the new font, tag us if you use it, and see you back here on Friday for our next Studio Notes™.

Cheers!
