Typeface Definition This font is called Didot Waxing Moon , named after its foundry 'Didot '. The Didot Waxing Moon is a display font, designed for headlines and titles but also has a version for body copy although I would'nt say it's suitable for body text when it comes to legibility.

The inspiration comes from the shape of a waxing (crescent) moon and the blade of a sabre sword.
