A calligraphic display face with sculpted, pen-like strokes and crisp wedge terminals. Letterforms mix rounded bowls with sharp, chiseled joins, producing a rhythmic texture that alternates between smooth curves and angular cuts. Counters are generally generous, while many strokes end in pointed spurs and tapered flicks that give the outlines a carved, slightly irregular hand-made presence. Capitals are particularly decorative, with prominent internal shaping and sweeping curves; lowercase forms keep a compact body with distinctive, stylized entry/exit strokes.
Best suited to display typography where its decorative detailing can remain clear—titles, chapter heads, packaging labels, posters, and themed branding. It performs especially well in short phrases or large-size settings that benefit from its dramatic silhouettes and manuscript-like texture.
The overall tone feels medieval and theatrical, evoking illuminated manuscripts and fantasy titling. Its strong silhouettes and ornamental terminals lend a ceremonial, storybook character that reads as historical-inspired rather than contemporary.
The font appears designed to translate broad-pen calligraphy into a consistent set of formal, unconnected letters, emphasizing expressive terminals and a historicized, ornamental rhythm for impactful titling.
The design relies on pronounced terminal behavior and distinctive internal cut-ins that create high individuality per glyph, especially in curved letters like C/O and in diagonals like K/X. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, mixing rounded forms with sharp, tapered finishing strokes for consistency in display settings.
