A textured serif with an ink-worn, hand-rendered feel, combining sturdy verticals with slightly uneven curves and subtle stroke modulation. Edges are rough and mottled, with small nicks and interior speckling that suggest dry-brush or distressed printing. Proportions are compact and somewhat uneven across glyphs, with a short x-height and rounded, slightly squarish counters. Serifs and terminals appear blunt and simplified, and overall spacing feels lively rather than mechanically uniform.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where the distressed texture can be appreciated—such as book covers, posters, editorial headlines, packaging, labels, and craft or heritage-themed branding. It can also add character to pull quotes or section headers, but the rough detailing may overwhelm at very small sizes.
The tone is rustic and nostalgic, evoking old print, handmade signage, or storybook typography. Its irregular rhythm reads friendly and quirky, with a lightly weathered character that adds warmth and personality.
Likely intended to mimic imperfect ink on paper—balancing classic serif structure with handcrafted irregularity to create an approachable, vintage-leaning display voice.
Uppercase forms feel display-oriented with pronounced silhouettes, while lowercase remains readable but intentionally idiosyncratic (notably in the looped descenders and mixed terminal shapes). Numerals match the same distressed texture and slightly calligraphic curvature, reinforcing the cohesive worn-ink impression.
