A calligraphic, hand-drawn serif with softly flared stems and subtly bracketed serifs that feel carved or brushed rather than mechanically constructed. Strokes show gentle modulation with rounded joins and tapered terminals, producing an ink-like texture and a lively baseline rhythm. Counters are open and slightly irregular, and proportions vary from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet an organic, crafted consistency. Uppercase forms are broad and display-like, while lowercase letters maintain readable shapes with rounded shoulders and a slightly calligraphic stress.
Well suited to display and short-to-medium text where character is desired—such as book covers, chapter openers, pull quotes, packaging labels, café/restaurant menus, and event invitations. It can also support branding systems that want a handcrafted, heritage-leaning voice, especially at sizes large enough to preserve its soft stroke details.
The overall tone is friendly and storybook-like, with an old-world, lightly medieval flavor. Its uneven, human touch adds charm and approachability, suggesting handmade signage or classic tale settings rather than modern corporate polish.
The design appears intended to blend formal calligraphic structure with a handcrafted, slightly rustic finish—delivering an expressive serif that feels traditional and personable while staying legible in common editorial and promotional settings.
The numerals and capitals carry strong personality with soft, curved entry/exit strokes, while diagonals and bowls often finish in rounded, wedge-like endings. Spacing appears intentionally loose and natural, contributing to a textured color in paragraphs and a distinctive presence in short lines.
