A formal, hand-drawn serif with broad proportions and a gently lively rhythm. Strokes show noticeable contrast with subtly swelling curves and tapered terminals, producing an inked, calligraphic feel rather than a rigid, mechanical one. Serifs are prominent and often bracketed, with slightly irregular edges and soft transitions that keep counters open and readable. Capitals are sturdy and classical in structure, while lowercase forms lean toward oldstyle behavior with rounded bowls, modest ascenders/descenders, and a generally even, text-friendly color.
Well-suited to book jackets, editorial headlines, pull quotes, and poster typography where a classic serif voice with human texture is desired. It can also work for packaging and branding that want a traditional, crafted feel, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the calligraphic taper and serif details remain clear.
The font conveys a traditional, storybook tone—confident and formal, but softened by hand-rendered nuance. Its slightly quirky, ink-on-paper character adds warmth and personality without becoming casual or messy, making it feel literary and crafted.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif construction with hand-drawn calligraphic modulation, offering a readable, traditionally grounded texture that still feels personal and made by hand.
Numerals echo the same drawn serif logic, with curved joins and slightly uneven stroke endings that match the letterforms. Spacing in the sample text reads comfortably at display sizes, where the tapered terminals and serif shapes become a defining feature.
