A lively, hand-drawn calligraphic display face with thick, brush-like strokes and subtly flared terminals. Letterforms are intentionally irregular, with shifting stroke angles, slightly uneven curves, and wedge-like joins that suggest quick, confident pen or brush movement. Counters tend to be compact, curves are bouncy rather than geometric, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating an animated rhythm across words. The lowercase includes a single-storey a and g, and the overall silhouette feels chunky and slightly carved, with frequent tapering at stroke ends.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing copy such as posters, headlines, titles, and cover typography where a handcrafted voice is desired. It can also work well in packaging, event graphics, and playful editorial callouts, especially when set with generous tracking and comfortable line spacing.
The tone is playful and theatrical, with a mischievous, storybook energy. Its uneven rhythm and dramatic terminals give it a handmade charm that reads as humorous and characterful rather than formal or restrained.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctly handmade, calligraphic display look—prioritizing personality and motion over strict consistency. Its flared terminals, variable widths, and lively curves aim to evoke brush lettering and add warmth and humor to branding or titling.
In text settings the face maintains strong presence, but the busy stroke endings and irregular spacing can create a textured color that’s best appreciated at larger sizes. Numerals match the expressive, brushy construction, keeping the same flared, hand-cut feel as the letters.
