About the Chela One font
Chela One is a display typeface designed by Miguel Hernandez, first released to Google Fonts on October 2012. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 74% of the cap height, condensed letter forms and high stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Chela One against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
