An old American Type Founders face, Della Robbia, is the source here. Nathan Willis revived it as Della Respira and Google Fonts added it in April 2012.
The capitals are tall, with the lowercase sitting well below them, and it reads best when there is room around it. 1 style, 293 characters of Latin. Willis built it as a Unicode family that could grow into other scripts later, though for now it stays with Latin.
Give it a book cover or a quote pulled out of an essay.
