Created by Raúl Israel, LC Tejuela is a display serif and serif typeface family. This typeface has eight styles and was published by Compañía Tipográfica De Chile.

Tejuela (Spanish for "Wood Shingle") is a neoclassical type inspired by the wood architecture of the ancient churches of Chiloé, an island chain in southern Chile; which are World Heritage Sites. This typeface has rough and broken kinds but with soft strokes.
The neoclassical characteristic of Tejuela is because of the architecture of these temples, which belong to this design however adjusted to wood with excellent quality and resourcefulness by Chiloé home builders using a product available in the location. For that reason, this typeface reflects the custom of the typefaces of that period, however adjusted to the coarseness and heat of the southern wood of the world.
Tejuela is useful for comprehensive texts in literature, history, art and heritage; as also for brief and large expressions in headings according to the occasion.
Tejuela has eight versions in Roman and Italic versions, with small caps, Old Style and Lining numbers, ligatures, alternative glyphs, portions, to name a few OpenType functions; unique reference to the uppercase Swash of the italic versions, which serve to generate fragile compositions. In addition, it has two stylistic sets to compose border ornaments influenced by the Chilota Architecture: colonnades and corners, just using the numbers on the keyboard; it is essential that the line spacing has the same worth as the font.
