A serifed, hand-rendered text face with uneven, inked strokes and intentionally rough outlines. Stems and serifs show wobble and slight swelling, with subtle notches and mottled interiors that mimic dry brush or distressed printing. Letterforms keep largely traditional proportions but vary from glyph to glyph, creating an irregular rhythm; curves are slightly flattened and counters are not perfectly clean, adding texture at both edges and inside strokes. Numerals follow the same worn, illustrative treatment, with rounded forms and inconsistent stroke joins that maintain a cohesive, crafted look.
Works best for headlines and short passages where the distressed texture can be appreciated—posters, book covers, craft or heritage branding, packaging, and thematic event materials. It can also support pull quotes or section titles when a handmade, vintage-leaning voice is desired.
The overall tone feels artisanal and old-world, like printed ephemera or hand-lettered signage that’s been weathered over time. Its quirks and texture read friendly and slightly whimsical rather than harsh, giving it a casual, narrative character suited to expressive display use.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditionally structured serif voice while foregrounding tactile imperfections—suggesting ink, wear, and hand-made production. It aims to add personality and atmosphere through roughened edges and inconsistent stroke behavior without abandoning familiar letterform construction.
Texture is prominent at typical display sizes, where the rough perimeter and streaky fill become a defining feature; in longer passages the irregularities can make the line color feel lively and uneven. Capitals are relatively prominent and decorative, while lowercase remains readable but retains the same sketchy, distressed energy.
