A compact serif with flared, wedge-like serifs and softly tapered terminals that give strokes a slightly hand-cut feel. The letterforms are generally upright with modest contrast and rounded joins, producing a calm, even texture despite small asymmetries in curves and terminals. Counters tend to be tight and the overall rhythm is lively, with subtle variations in stroke endings and widths that keep lines from looking rigidly mechanical. Numerals follow the same softened, slightly uneven construction, matching the text face closely.
Well suited to short-to-medium display text where its flared serifs and handmade flavor can be appreciated—such as headlines, book covers, posters, packaging, and pull quotes. It can also work for brief passages in themed editorial layouts when you want a warm, vintage tone and a textured typographic voice.
The tone reads as storybook and old-world, with a rustic whimsy that feels warm rather than formal. Its gentle irregularity suggests handmade print, evoking folklore, craft, or vintage ephemera instead of corporate polish.
Likely designed to deliver an approachable, decorative serif with a handcrafted print sensibility—combining traditional serif structure with softened, slightly irregular terminals to create a distinctive, narrative-friendly texture.
In paragraphs, the distinctive flared serifs and curled terminals become the main identifying feature, adding character at display sizes while remaining cohesive in longer lines. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates a consistent roman style with expressive caps and notably individualized shapes in letters like J, Q, and y.
