A decorative serif with extremely thin hairlines paired with occasional heavier vertical strokes, producing a striking contrast and a crisp, delicate texture. Proportions are tall and tightly set, with narrow bowls and long ascenders/descenders that create a vertical, slightly wiry rhythm. Serifs and terminals feel hand-influenced: many strokes end in sharp, wedge-like points, small hooks, or curled tails, and counters are often asymmetric. The overall construction is consistent but intentionally idiosyncratic, with lively stroke modulation and varied finishing details across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short expressive copy where its distinctive terminals and high-contrast hairlines can be appreciated. It works well for book covers, event posters, boutique packaging, and branding that aims for a whimsical or vintage-leaning tone, and can add personality to pull quotes or chapter openers when given generous size and spacing.
The font reads as playful and theatrical, evoking vintage display typography with a mischievous, fairy‑tale flair. Its spindly elegance and quirky terminals give it an eccentric personality that feels curated rather than neutral, making text appear animated and characterful.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic serif letterforms through a decorative, hand-drawn lens—emphasizing dramatic contrast, tall narrow proportions, and playful terminal gestures to create a memorable display voice.
In running text the strong contrast and narrow forms emphasize verticality, while distinctive swashes on letters like Q, J, y, and g add visual punctuation. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with stylized curves and occasional ornamental terminals that suit display settings more than utilitarian tabular use.
