A tall, condensed serif with softly flared, bracketed terminals and a gently calligraphic stroke feel. Curves are slightly irregular and organic, with modest contrast and a narrow overall set that keeps counters compact and vertical rhythm strong. Serifs are small but expressive—often wedge-like or teardrop-ended—giving stems a tapered, hand-shaped finish. The lowercase shows distinctive, slightly quirky forms (notably in a, g, y, and s), while numerals are narrow and open, matching the font’s vertical emphasis.
Best suited to display typography where its narrow proportions and decorative terminals can read clearly—headlines, book or album covers, poster titles, themed packaging, and editorial pull quotes. It can work for short passages when ample size and leading are available, but its condensed texture favors attention-grabbing lines over dense body copy.
The tone is whimsical and old-world, blending a fairy-tale charm with a lightly gothic, antique-book sensibility. It feels human and characterful rather than strictly formal, lending text a curious, narrative voice.
Likely intended to provide a condensed, characterful serif for themed and narrative-driven design, combining traditional serif structure with hand-shaped quirks for a distinctive voice.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and columnar, which reinforces the condensed texture in paragraphs. The design maintains consistent personality across caps, lowercase, and figures, with recurring tapered terminals that create a lively, slightly “inky” silhouette at display sizes.
