About Lovers Quarrel

Lovers Quarrel is a script typeface drawn with a thin pen line and a gentle slant. The contrast between its two alphabets is the point of the design: the lowercase is compact and simple, with short joins and only modest loops on g, j and y, while every capital is surrounded by one or two hairline flourishes that circle back through the letter. In the specimen the L and Q show this most clearly, each carrying a double loop and a long tail. The official notes call the style playful and mention scrapbooking, cards and invitations. The family has one Regular style and is not a variable font. Its 500 glyphs cover the Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese character sets. Robert Leuschke is credited as designer, and the font is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Lovers Quarrel works

Invitation headings

A flourished capital followed by plain lowercase sets a name or the word at the top of an invitation.

Monograms and initials

The capitals, each wrapped in hairline loops, work alone as initials on seals, tags and napkins.

Scrapbook titles

The official notes name scrapbooking as a use: a short title in the thin script frames a page of photos.

Greeting card messages

Compact lowercase keeps a two- or three-line greeting readable beneath an ornate first letter.

Things to know

One style, hairline strokes

There is a single Regular cut and the flourishes are very thin, so small sizes and low-contrast colours make them vanish.

Capitals overlap in a row

Set side by side, as in the specimen, the capitals' loops run into each other. They are drawn to be followed by lowercase.

Turkish and Romanian are incomplete

Vietnamese is covered, but the Turkish ğ and İ and the Romanian ș and ț are not in the character set.
