Elfenbankje in Dutch means: ‘little bench for Elves’. It is a kind of fungus that grows in deciduous forests all over the world and is know in English as ‘Turkey Tail’. I  came up with this name, because I often take my kids for a walk in the forest and they love to use an app called Obsidentify, where you can upload a picture of a leaf, a bug or a mushroom. The app will then tell you what you found! We discovered a lot of ‘Elfenbankjes’ in the forest, so there you have it!

Elfenbankje is a nice font family, consisting of a ‘fat’ and a ‘light’ version, which work together well.
