A calligraphic, hand-rendered serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and subtly uneven proportions that give it a made-by-hand rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with rounded joins and occasional pointed, chiseled ends, creating a lively texture across words. Counters tend to be compact and softly rounded, while ascenders and capitals feel tall and slightly narrow, helping the face read as traditional yet informal. Overall spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn quality rather than strict geometric consistency.
It works best for display settings such as book covers, chapter heads, posters, menus, and packaging where its textured, hand-crafted serif details can be appreciated. It can also suit branding and identity work that wants a traditional, artisanal voice, especially at moderate-to-large sizes where the wedge terminals and contrast stay clear.
The font conveys an old-world, storybook tone—warm, slightly whimsical, and craft-forward. Its carved, calligraphic flavor suggests folkloric titles, period-themed materials, and expressive headings without feeling overly ornate.
The design appears intended to blend formal calligraphic structure with a human, slightly irregular finish, evoking hand-cut or brush-formed lettering. It prioritizes character and atmosphere over strict uniformity, aiming to create a distinctive, heritage-leaning voice for headline and short-text use.
Capitals carry much of the personality, with prominent flared strokes and distinctive curved construction, while the lowercase keeps a compact, sturdy footprint. Numerals match the same hand-cut sensibility, with rounded forms and tapered terminals that keep them visually aligned with the text.
