High-contrast serif capitals with small solid leafy branches attached near their lower strokes
Belva
Belva is a heavy serif display face whose stems are drawn as ornamental carving: leaves, buds and thin curling tendrils grow out of the letters and fill the counters, so a word looks engraved rather than set.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Belva.
BELVA fills the middle of the card in solid black, and each letter carries its own ornament: the B has a branch climbing its stem, the E sprouts a flower in the middle bar, the L sends a tendril into the counter, the V is filled with two sprays and the A ends in a bud. The ornaments are the same weight as the letter, so the word reads as one object rather than as type with decoration added, and the serifs are heavy and flat, which keeps the base of the word stable. The ground is a pale cream with painted magnolia branches at the corners and a thin ornamental border, and three captions name the set in the same alphabet with wide spacing. It is a display cut for stationery, book covers and labels, and it needs size: the tendrils are fine, so they close up first.

Invitation header for a garden wedding
The flowers growing out of the letters give a formal card its botanical ornament without a second illustration, and the heavy serifs hold the names at a modest size.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 148 by 210 mm invitation: set the names at 26 pt on one row, keep 22 mm of clear ground beneath before the venue at 9 pt, and hold 16 mm from the widest bud to the card edge.
Pre-production check
The tendrils fill in on textured card; print one invitation on the intended board and check the counter of the V before the suite.
Label for a botanical eau de parfum
The engraved ornament suits a small bottle that is sold on its label, and the lettering carries the drawing so no separate image is needed on the front.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 50 by 80 mm bottle label: set the house name at 18 pt on one row, keep 7 mm of clear ground beneath before the volume at 4.5 pt, and hold 5 mm from the ornament to the die line.
Pre-production check
Fine leaves break on a curved label; print one label and wrap it onto the bottle before the batch.
Cover for a book about gardens
The lettering is a period reference without a photograph, and a cover built from one word in this face reads as a considered title rather than a stock layout.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 152 by 229 mm cover: set the title at 52 pt across two rows, keep 22 mm of clear ground beneath before the author at 11 pt, and hold 15 mm from the ornament to the spine edge.
Pre-production check
Fine stems drop out in a small paperback; print one cover at the final size and check the tendrils before the run.
