A calligraphic handwritten face with brush-like, slightly uneven strokes and modest thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are largely unconnected and upright, with a lively, variable rhythm created by differing glyph widths and occasional swelling terminals. Curves are soft and rounded, while many strokes taper into flicks or hooks; several capitals feature decorative entry strokes and modest flourishes. Counters are open and the overall texture stays airy, with a noticeably small x-height relative to tall ascenders and descenders.
This font is well suited to short to medium-length display settings such as headlines, titles, packaging, invitations, and book-cover typography where a handcrafted voice is desired. It works especially well when paired with a simple text face to balance its expressive rhythm and decorative capitals.
The font conveys a friendly, storybook character with an old-world, handmade charm. Its gentle irregularity and subtle flourishes feel personal and expressive rather than formal or mechanical, lending a whimsical, folkloric tone.
The design appears intended to emulate neat, practiced hand lettering with a calligraphic influence—formal enough to feel curated, but irregular enough to remain human. Its proportions and flourished capitals suggest a focus on personality and charm over dense, continuous reading.
Stroke endings often resolve in teardrop-like taps or angled brush lifts, giving a slightly inked, drawn-on-paper impression. Numerals follow the same handcrafted logic, mixing simple forms with a few more calligraphic curves, keeping the set cohesive for display use.
