Developed by Carine de Wandeleer, Manises is a display serif and hand display font published by Eurotypo.

Located in the Valencian Community, Spain, Manises is really famous for its pottery. In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, Manises was the most essential production center for Spanish-Moresca ceramics, which was exported throughout Europe. At the start of the 16th century, Manises tiles were extremely commercially effective, particularly of the heraldic type. Much appreciated by the Aragonese crown, Manises ceramics was likewise exported to France, Italy, and specifically to Naples. As a big fan of Paterna and Manises ceramics, Naples affected other Italian courts. Calixto III and Alejandro VI continuously commissioned Valencian pieces and tiles for the halls of the Vatican. The export also encompassed Sicily, Venice, Turkey, Cyprus and even Flanders and the Baltic countries. The palaces of all the courts of Europe were enhanced with this art. Numerous painters replicated it in his paintings. It can be seen in the work of Humberto and John Van Eyck, and in the central panel of a triptych by Hugo Van der Goes (Uffizi Gallery, Florence). In this city there are also some frescoes by Domenico Ghirlandaio in which the Arabic-Valencian earthenware appears.
