A condensed serif with dramatic stroke modulation and a strongly calligraphic skeleton. Stems are thin and vertical, while curves swell into bulbous, teardrop-like terminals and flared serif treatments, creating a lively rhythm from letter to letter. Many joins and endings taper into sharp points or soft droplets, and several glyphs show deliberate asymmetry and idiosyncratic shaping, giving the face a decorative, hand-influenced feel. Overall spacing is tight and the forms feel tall, with small counters and pronounced thick–thin transitions that emphasize the vertical axis.
Best used at display sizes for headlines, titles, and short blocks of text where its high-contrast detailing can be appreciated. It fits branding and packaging that want a boutique, editorial, or vintage-leaning voice, and works well for posters, invitations, and pull quotes where distinctive letterforms are an asset.
The tone reads refined but playful—part fashion-magazine elegance, part storybook theatricality. Its exaggerated terminals and curving, slightly mischievous details give it a dramatic, characterful voice suited to expressive typography rather than neutral reading.
Likely designed as a characterful display serif that blends classical high-contrast construction with ornamental, calligraphy-like terminals. The goal appears to be instant personality and elegance in compact widths, prioritizing expressive silhouettes and rhythm over neutral, long-form readability.
Uppercase and lowercase exhibit noticeable personality differences, with the lowercase showing more rhythmic, calligraphic movement and the capitals leaning into sculptural contrast. Numerals echo the same tapered, high-drama construction, with slender verticals and curling strokes that reinforce a vintage display sensibility.
