A lively, calligraphic serif with flared terminals and subtly chiseled, wedge-like strokes. Curves are full and slightly irregular, and verticals show gentle modulation that reads as pen- or brush-influenced rather than purely geometric. The rhythm is intentionally uneven with a mild bounce and variable character widths, giving words an organic, hand-made texture while keeping letterforms clearly separated and legible. Numerals and capitals carry pronounced tapers and sharp joins, reinforcing the crafted, display-forward silhouette.
Best suited to display and short text: book covers, chapter openers, posters, menus, packaging, and boutique branding where a hand-crafted voice is desired. It can also work for pull quotes or headings paired with a quieter text face, especially when set with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing.
The tone feels storybook and old-world, with a playful theatricality that suggests hand-lettered titles or period-inspired signage. Its quirky stroke endings and animated spacing add warmth and personality, making text feel informal but still cultivated. Overall it conveys a charming, slightly eccentric elegance rather than strict formality.
Designed to emulate the character of hand-drawn, calligraphic lettering in a consistent typographic system. The goal appears to be expressive, human warmth—using flared serifs, tapered strokes, and varied widths to create distinctive word shapes for attention-grabbing titles and branding.
The uppercase set has strong presence with sculpted bowls and angled stress that create distinctive word shapes, while the lowercase maintains a compact, traditional feel. Pointed terminals and occasional asymmetries create visual sparkle at larger sizes, but the textured outlines can become busy when set too small or tightly tracked.
