The A, B, C of Copperplate Capitals

Here at The Calligraphy Box, we specialize in teaching Copperplate. Why? You may ask. Not only is it incredibly beautiful to look at, but learning it provides a strong foundation for many other styles of calligraphy, both modern and traditional. It’s a captivating script that has been admired for centuries. Its graceful curves and delicate lines have the ability to evoke a sense of timeless sophistication and beauty. It’s more than just handwriting.

What’s more, Copperplate calligraphy can provide a meditative and calming escape from the noise of our tech-driven world. Whether you’re watching or learning to write it, this art form allows you to switch off and find peace in creating something beautiful with your own hands.
