AfricanSymbols Schriftart

African Symbols by Manfred Klein is a free symbolic dingbat font built around bold geometric emblems and dense ornamental forms. Concentric rings, interlaced knots, pointed silhouettes, and sunlike circles recur throughout.

Poster design is an especially convincing setting, since these compact marks can serve as emblems beside festival lettering, album artwork, or editorial features concerned with folklore and visual culture. The repeated symmetry and enclosed shapes connect these signs to seal, medallion, and textile imagery, letting each symbol become part of an illustrated theme rather than merely taking the place of a letter.
