The inspiration source for Noir Monogram is the “Pearl” letterset from the 1854 Becker’s Ornamental Penmanship and Draughtsman’s Letter Book by George J. Becker. The original design was a highly ornate steelplate engraving which was simplified to a solid letterstyle with minimal detailings.

Noir Monogram is capable of several traditional monogram forms with unique detailing features utilizing Ligature & Stylistic Alternates features. Download and view the Noir Monogram Guidebook if you would like to learn a little more. There is a guidebook for both the Pro and Standard fonts included in the font package.

Noir Monogram comes complete with both Pro and Standard format fonts. For those with programs that can take advantage of OpenType features, the Pro fonts are for you, but for others without the ability to use OpenType features, we've created separate fonts that make up the styles contained in the Pro font.
