Mercy
Mercy is a Ladies' Hand style font that draws inspiration from ornamental penmanship. Characterized by slightly longer ascenders and descenders, accompanied by modest shading, it pays homage to a time when the Ladies' Hand featured fewer flourishes, making it ideal for creating heartfelt, lengthy letters. Despite its initial association with femininity, this style gained popularity among male penmen, including Spencer, who reserved it for close friends and relatives, appreciating its sincerity.
The modern version of Mercy goes beyond the simplicity of the original Ladies' Hand Capitals. With various OpenType features and embellished capitals, it is a highly versatile typeface, blending tradition with contemporary elegance.
