A serif text face with old-style proportions and a distinctly distressed, inked surface. Strokes show noticeable contrast with slightly swelling curves and tapered joins, while serifs are short and bracketed, often ending in softened, irregular terminals. The outlines are intentionally rough and uneven—suggesting letterpress bite, dry-brush ink, or aged printing—yet the underlying construction remains steady and readable. Counters are moderately open, curves are rounded rather than geometric, and overall spacing feels text-oriented with a lively, slightly uneven rhythm.
Best suited to display-to-short-text settings where texture is part of the message: book covers, chapter openers, posters, editorial headings, and heritage-themed packaging or labels. It can work for pull quotes or brief passages when you want a vintage tone, but the rough edges will be most effective when given enough size and contrast to show their character.
The font conveys an antique, handmade character—evoking worn books, folk printing, and historical ephemera. Its textured edges add warmth and grit, giving text a tactile, organic presence that feels more human than polished.
The design appears intended to reinterpret an old-style serif through a deliberately worn, printed texture, combining classic letterforms with an aged, tactile finish. It aims for historical atmosphere and personality while retaining the familiar proportions and readability of a traditional serif.
The distressing is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a unified ‘weathered print’ effect. At larger sizes the texture becomes a prominent feature; at smaller sizes it will read more like softening and grain, subtly lowering crispness compared with clean text serifs.
