Designed by Jeff Levine, Structural Glass JNL is an art deco font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Jeff Levine Fonts.
A page from the 1931 Vitrolite catalog showing illustrations of store fronts and building exteriors utilizing the material provided a classically Art Deco type example.
The business name “Sylvin” did not offer many characters to work with, so completion of the digital type design was simply left to imagination.
The end result is Structural Glass JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions
According to Wikipedia:
“Pigmented structural glass, also known generically as structural glass and as vitreous marble, and marketed under the names Carrara glass, Sani Onyx, and Vitrolite, among others, is a high-strength, colored glass. Developed in the United States in 1900, it was widely used around the world in the first half of the 20th century in Art Deco and Streamline Moderne buildings. It also found use as a material for signs, tables, and areas requiring a hygienic surface. Over time, the trademarked name “vitrolite” became a generic term for the glass.”
