While it retains a richness and beauty discovered in standard uncial types, Rieven Uncial has actually been carefully tempered by designer Steven Skaggs to be a lot more versatile. The accompanying italic works completely well with its uncial cousin despite being structurally rather distinct from it. Rieven Uncial looks fantastic on books, packaging, and signage, or anytime there is a need for an unique feel to text without being excessively decorative.
Rieven Uncial was granted a Certificate of Excellence in Type Style in the 2010 TDC2.
