Fine narrow capitals with a long low Y sweep and inset diamond accents
Celysia
Celysia sets one pale capital word on a lamp-lit ground, where the capitals compress tall, the C opens broad, the Y sweeps low and left and small diamonds sit inside two curved areas.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Celysia.
The C opens a wide fine curve, the Y trails a long leftward curl below the baseline and the diamonds sit inside two letters as part of the design rather than added artwork. The inset diamond is the character: it turns a plain capital row into an ornament, which is why the sample sets a single word on a dark interior. Because the Y travels below the line, keep 18 mm of clearance from 24 pt, and note that the diamonds vanish under 0.4 mm at small sizes.

Wordmark for a jeweller
The inset diamonds suit a jeweller's mark, and the fine caps hold a short name at 26 pt on a 50 mm card, above the size where the small insets drop out.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 50 by 90 mm card: set the wordmark at 26 pt, keep 12 mm of clear ground beneath for the Y sweep, and set the address in a 5 pt caps at the foot.
Pre-production check
The diamonds drop out below 0.4 mm; check the plate proof at 22 pt and keep the wordmark at 24 pt or above.
Title for a jewellery feature
The narrow caps set a tall title, and the ornamented letters hold a one-word heading at 64 pt on a spread, with the low Y sweep given twenty-two millimetres beneath the baseline.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 210 mm spread: set the title at 64 pt, keep 22 mm beneath for the Y sweep, and set the standfirst at 10 pt in a serif with 16 mm of clear ground.
Pre-production check
Fine narrow hairlines on a tinted ground grey out; check the page and keep the title on white.
Card for a formal invitation
The jewelled caps set a formal name, and the fine letters hold the couple's surnames at 24 pt on a coated card, one word per row so the two inset diamonds do not compete.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 105 by 148 mm card: set the surnames at 24 pt, keep 18 mm of clear ground beneath for the Y curl, and set the date and venue in a 9 pt caps at the foot.
Pre-production check
Two ornamented capitals set close read as clutter; check the card and keep one word per row.

Bezoria - Elegant Serif
Bezoria is an elegant serif in which the lowercase carries calligraphic tails, the bowls flow into their stems and the serifs stay fine, so a single name reads as a piece of modern lettering rather than as a text face.
