A decorative serif with a distinctly calligraphic construction: strokes swell and taper quickly, creating sharp contrast and a slightly irregular rhythm. Serifs are fine and flared, often ending in pointed, triangular wedges, and joins show pen-like tension rather than geometric uniformity. Capitals are narrow with tall proportions and crisp terminals, while the lowercase is compact with a notably low x-height and lively ascenders/descenders. Curves (C, S, O) are slightly pinched and asymmetrical, and diagonals (V, W, X) carry sharp, blade-like strokes; numerals follow the same spiky, inked-in character.
Best suited to display typography such as editorial headlines, book and album covers, posters, and cultural-event materials where its sharp contrast and flared serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for invitations and selective branding wordmarks that want an old-world, literary feel, while extended body text would benefit from generous size and leading.
The overall tone feels bookish and old-world, with a touch of wit from its sharp serifs and slightly quirky, hand-driven details. It reads as refined but not purely formal—more like a theatrical or literary voice with subtle eccentricity.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif proportions through a pen-influenced, high-drama stroke model—using tapered wedges, crisp terminals, and narrow capitals to create a distinctive, slightly eccentric display serif.
Spacing appears relatively open for such narrow forms, helping the pointed terminals and deep thins remain distinguishable in display settings. The contrast and delicate hairlines make the texture lively but also visually busy at smaller sizes, where the tapering details can become more prominent than the letter skeletons.
