A wiry slab-serif with very thin, mostly monoline strokes and small, blunt serifs that often feel slightly uneven, as if drawn with a fine pen. Proportions are generally narrow with tall ascenders and a notably small x-height, giving the lowercase a delicate, elongated look. Curves are lightly wobbly and terminals vary subtly from glyph to glyph, producing an organic rhythm rather than strict mechanical consistency. Numerals are similarly slender and open, with simple, lightly curved forms that keep the overall texture bright and airy.
Best suited to display sizes where its fine strokes and idiosyncratic details can be appreciated—such as book covers, chapter titles, pull quotes, packaging, and themed headlines. It can work for short passages when generous size and spacing are available, but its airy construction favors expressive typography over dense body copy.
The tone is quaint and lightly eccentric, combining a bookish serif structure with a hand-rendered, sketchlike liveliness. It reads as gentle and playful rather than formal, with a subtle antique charm suited to narrative or illustrative contexts.
Likely designed to evoke a handcrafted, vintage-leaning reading experience by pairing a classic slab-serif skeleton with deliberately irregular, pen-drawn details. The goal appears to be charm and personality while retaining familiar serif letter shapes for legibility.
In running text the thin strokes and small x-height create a light page color, while the slab serifs help keep letterforms identifiable despite the delicate construction. The unevenness appears intentional, contributing character and a handmade cadence across lines.
