A quirky slab-serif design with gently uneven rhythm and an intentionally handmade finish. Strokes stay fairly even in thickness, while terminals and serifs often flare into small wedge-like or triangular points that give the letters a slightly spiky silhouette. Curves are open and round, counters are generous, and spacing feels lively rather than strictly regular, producing a subtly bouncing texture in text. Capitals are expressive and varied in width, and the numerals follow the same informal, drawn quality.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its character can lead: posters, cover titles, headings, packaging, and signage for playful or artisanal brands. In running text, it works most naturally at larger sizes where the quirky terminals and uneven rhythm remain clear and intentional.
The overall tone is playful and slightly mischievous, with a storybook or “inked by hand” personality rather than a polished editorial feel. Its irregularities read as charming and approachable, suggesting craft, folklore, and casual creativity.
Likely drawn to evoke an informal slab-serif with a handcrafted, story-driven voice—combining sturdy slab cues with irregular, calligraphic touches for personality and memorability in display typography.
Distinctive pointed details appear at many stroke ends, and several glyphs show asymmetry that reinforces the hand-rendered character. The texture becomes more animated in longer lines, where the uneven widths and idiosyncratic serif shapes create a lively, decorative color.
