Description

Mesmerised by a sparking greenish-yellow mineral called Olivine hidden within black basalt in the lava fields of Lanzarote, we decided to name the gem of our library after this beauty.
Introducing Peridot – a multifaceted sans serif type system by Foundry5. We burnt the midnight oil and sweated over minute details to present a high quality 10 weight family with slanted italics in 6 widths and the coveted variable format! Peridot is loaded with personality; try the different stylistic variants to change the typographic tone depending on your mood. The combination of widths and styles makes Peridot an exciting typographic palette for the discerning designer.

For additional license options like app, enterprise, multi-user, and self-hosted web, visit Peridot PE on Type Network.
