A decorative serif with lightly drawn, tapered strokes and lively, slightly irregular curves. Serifs are small and flared, often appearing as sharp, triangular or wedge-like terminals rather than flat slabs, giving the outlines a crisp, etched feel. Bowls and shoulders are rounded but not perfectly symmetrical, and several joins pinch into narrow points, creating a subtle spikiness in letters like M, N, and W. Overall spacing is open and the rhythm is gently uneven, reinforcing a handmade, storybook texture while remaining legible in continuous text.
It suits short-to-medium text where personality is desired—book covers, chapter titles, packaging, posters, pull quotes, and themed invitations. The delicate stroke weight and decorative terminals make it especially effective at larger sizes, where the pointed details and irregular warmth are more visible.
The font conveys an old-world, fairy-tale tone—friendly and a bit eccentric rather than formal or classical. Its pointed terminals and gently wobbly contours suggest folklore, fantasy, and vintage print ephemera, with a playful edge that keeps it from feeling austere.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif through a whimsical, hand-drawn lens—keeping familiar serif structure for readability while adding tapered, pointed terminals and slightly irregular curves for character and narrative charm.
Uppercase forms feel display-oriented with distinctive construction (notably the peaked M and the angular diagonals), while lowercase maintains a readable, bookish flow with soft modulation. Numerals share the same tapered, slightly calligraphic finish, and punctuation (like the question mark and ampersand) echoes the same sharp-terminal language.
