A heavy, brush-drawn serif with rounded, inked contours and gently flared terminals. Strokes stay mostly even in thickness, but the edges show subtle swelling and tapering that suggest a broad-pen or brush origin. The forms are compact and slightly irregular in a controlled way, with wedge-like serifs and soft entry/exit strokes that add a hand-rendered rhythm. Counters are generous and open, and the overall silhouette reads as sturdy and dark without feeling rigidly geometric.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, book covers, and brand marks where a friendly, handcrafted serif can set the mood quickly. It also works well for short passages, pull quotes, and packaging text where a warm, folkloric feel is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is warm and inviting, with a nostalgic, storybook personality. Its handcrafted texture and softened serifs give it an approachable, slightly whimsical voice that feels more human than formal.
The design appears intended to emulate hand-rendered calligraphic lettering while keeping the alphabet cohesive and readable. It aims for a bold, dark color on the page with softened details and mild irregularity to convey craft and personality rather than precision.
Capitals have a decorative, calligraphic presence while remaining unconnected and highly legible. Lowercase features distinctive, lively shapes (notably in curved letters and descenders) that create a playful cadence in text, and the numerals match the same rounded, inked weight and terminal treatment.
