A calligraphic, hand-drawn roman with crisp, tapered strokes and frequent wedge-like terminals that suggest a pen or brush pulled to a point. Curves are generous and open, while straighter strokes often flare or narrow subtly, creating a lively rhythm across words. Proportions are slightly irregular in a deliberate way, with capitals that feel decorative and varied, and lowercase forms that keep an unconnected, handwritten cadence. Overall spacing appears moderate, with clear counters and a legible silhouette even as the letterforms retain an organic, drawn quality.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture and personality are desirable, such as titles, invitations, packaging, and posters. It can also work for pull quotes, chapter heads, and branding lines where a handcrafted, calligraphic voice is needed without joining strokes. For long passages at small sizes, the active terminals and irregularities may become visually busy, so it will generally perform better with comfortable size and spacing.
This face feels personal and slightly theatrical, with a storybook sensibility and a touch of old-world craft. The sharp terminals and lively curves add a hint of drama, making it read as expressive rather than strictly polite or neutral.
The design appears intended to capture the character of formal hand lettering—clean enough to read in phrases, but expressive enough to feel bespoke. Its pointed terminals and slightly irregular rhythm prioritize personality and distinct word shapes, especially in capitals and numerals.
Distinctive features include pointed entry/exit strokes, occasional hooked or flicked terminals, and notably stylized capitals (e.g., rounded bowls paired with sharp tips). Numerals follow the same drawn logic, with several figures showing pronounced curves and tapered ends that match the overall texture.
