A narrow serif with lively, slightly irregular letterforms and a calligraphic, drawn quality. Strokes show moderate contrast with gently swelling verticals and tapered joins, and the serifs are small and bracketed rather than sharp or slab-like. Curves and bowls feel slightly pinched and asymmetrical in places, giving the alphabet an organic rhythm and varied color across words. The lowercase is compact with a notably short x-height and long, expressive ascenders/descenders; figures and capitals keep the same narrow, upright stance with subtly softened terminals.
Best suited to display settings where its character can be appreciated—book covers, chapter headings, editorial titles, posters, menus, and packaging. It can work for short passages or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, but the tight proportions and compact x-height favor larger text and generous spacing for clarity.
The overall tone is playful and literary, evoking a vintage, storybook sensibility rather than strict formal classicism. Its quirks and uneven cadence add charm and personality, reading as human and a bit theatrical.
This design appears intended to offer a decorative serif alternative with a hand-rendered feel—combining traditional serif cues with purposeful irregularity to create a distinctive, personable voice for headlines and thematic typography.
In continuous text the narrow proportions and short x-height create a tall, airy texture, while the irregular curves and small serifs add visual movement. The numerals and punctuation match the same slightly idiosyncratic construction, supporting cohesive display typography.
