An upright calligraphic serif with a hand-drawn, slightly irregular skeleton and gently flared, wedge-like terminals. Strokes show moderate contrast with soft transitions and subtly uneven edges that read as inked rather than geometric. Serifs are short and often bracketed, with occasional flicks and teardrop-like endings that add motion. Proportions feel humanist: rounded bowls, open counters, and a lively rhythm across words, with small variations in stroke taper and letter widths that keep lines from looking mechanical.
Well-suited to book titles, chapter heads, and editorial display where a traditional, handcrafted voice is desired. It can also support packaging, signage, and posters that benefit from a historic or artisanal feel. For longer passages it works best at comfortable text sizes where the inked texture and tapered terminals can remain clear.
The font conveys an old-world, storybook tone—learned and traditional, yet warm and handmade. Its modest quirks and ink-like modulation suggest craft, giving text a folkloric or medieval-leaning flavor without becoming overly ornate.
Likely designed to evoke formal pen-made lettering adapted for type: traditional serif structure enriched with calligraphic taper, subtle irregularity, and lively terminals for a crafted, period-tinged tone.
Capitals are expressive and slightly monumental, while lowercase maintains readability through clear shapes and open apertures. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with curving strokes and tapered endings that harmonize with the text. Overall texture stays even enough for continuous reading, but the organic variation remains visible, especially at larger sizes.
