A sturdy serif with softly flared stroke endings and a gently swelling, calligraphic modulation. The letterforms feel broad and open, with rounded bowls, slightly pinched joins, and subtle tapering that creates an animated edge without looking rough. Serifs and terminals are wedge-like and curved rather than sharply bracketed, giving a carved, organic silhouette. The overall rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in a controlled way, producing a distinctive texture in text while staying solid and readable at display sizes.
This style is well-suited to posters, headlines, and titles where a bold, expressive serif texture is an asset. It can work effectively for packaging and branding that wants an artisanal or retro flavor, and for book covers or editorial display where a warm, characterful voice is needed. For long passages, it will read best at comfortable sizes with generous spacing to balance its dark, lively texture.
The font projects a warm, characterful tone that reads as vintage and human rather than mechanical. Its bouncy curves and flared endings add a hint of whimsy, making it feel approachable and expressive while still weighty and confident.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with flared, tapered terminals to create a more handmade, spirited presence. It aims to deliver strong display impact while keeping forms open and familiar enough to remain legible in short-to-medium text settings.
Lowercase shows compact, sturdy shapes with pronounced bowls and a strong baseline presence, while capitals maintain broad proportions and clear counters. Numerals match the same soft, flared finishing, helping headings and short statements look cohesive. In paragraph-like samples, the texture is dark and energetic, suggesting it is best used where personality and impact are desired.
