About the Lacquer font
Lacquer is a display typeface designed by Niki Polyocan and Eli Block, first released to Google Fonts on July 2019. 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 high x-height at 79% of the cap height, normal 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 Lacquer against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Lacquer is the face in a screenshot you have? Run it through the free font identifier, or browse the full library of 1,935 open-source fonts for something with a similar feel.
