A bold, calligraphic roman with lively, brush-like modulation and prominent teardrop/ball terminals. Strokes show clear thick–thin contrast with rounded joins, generous curves, and occasional swash-like entry and exit strokes, especially in capitals. Proportions lean wide and open, with a relatively low x-height and substantial ascenders/descenders that create a buoyant line rhythm. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same soft, inked character, with slightly irregular, hand-drawn nuances that keep the texture animated rather than mechanical.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where its swashy capitals and high-contrast strokes can be appreciated. It also fits invitations, menus, and short editorial pull quotes that benefit from a classic, personable calligraphic voice.
The overall tone feels friendly and nostalgic, with a storybook warmth and a hint of old-world charm. Its rounded terminals and flowing curves read as welcoming and slightly playful, while the strong contrast and formal letterforms keep it from feeling casual or messy.
The design appears intended to blend formal calligraphic cues with approachable, rounded forms, creating a distinctive display face that feels handcrafted yet structured. Its emphasis on expressive capitals and soft terminals suggests a goal of adding charm and personality to titles and short statements.
Capitals are particularly decorative and attention-grabbing, giving headings a distinctive signature. In longer text, the combination of low x-height and expressive terminals produces a patterned, ornamental color that favors display sizing over dense body copy.
