A narrow, high-contrast serif with a distinctly inked, slightly irregular contour. Stems are often straight and vertical, but edges show subtle waviness and taper, producing a printed-from-type or hand-pressed look. Serifs and terminals frequently split or spur outward into small forked shapes, and some joins show pinched transitions that read like ink traps or carved notches. Counters are compact and the overall rhythm is tight, with lively variations in stroke endings that keep lines of text visually animated.
Well-suited to headlines and short blocks where its ornate terminals and inked texture can be appreciated—such as posters, book covers, craft packaging, and branding with a vintage or handmade angle. It can also work for pull quotes or section openers when you want a distinctive, old-print character rather than a neutral reading face.
The tone feels antique and craft-driven—part old-time print shop, part storybook display. Its spurred endings and textured outlines add a faintly gothic, eccentric personality without becoming fully blackletter, lending an expressive, slightly mischievous mood.
Likely designed to evoke historical letterpress or carved-type flavor through narrow proportions, high contrast, and forked/spurred terminals. The controlled upright structure suggests an intent to remain legible while adding decorative, tactile detail at ends and joins.
In text, the distinctive forked terminals and uneven stroke edges create a strong texture that can dominate at smaller sizes, while at larger sizes those same details become an appealing ornamental feature. Figures follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic and look consistent with the letterforms.
