A serif typeface with an organic, hand-inked construction and subtly uneven outlines. Strokes show gentle modulation with slightly tapered terminals and flared, wedge-like serifs rather than hard brackets, giving letters a carved or penned feel. Proportions lean narrow and tall, with modest counters and a relatively small x-height; ascenders and capitals feel prominent. Curves are slightly irregular and the baseline rhythm has a mild wobble that reads intentional, adding texture without becoming chaotic.
Well-suited to book covers, chapter heads, pull quotes, and editorial titling where a traditional-but-imperfect texture adds atmosphere. It also fits posters, labels, and boutique packaging that benefit from a handcrafted, historical voice, especially at medium to large sizes where the subtle irregularities remain clear.
The overall tone is storybook and antiquarian, suggesting old print, folklore, or fantasy ephemera. Its lightly roughened, calligraphic finish feels warm and human, with a touch of whimsy rather than strict formality.
The design appears intended to evoke classic serif typography filtered through a hand-drawn or lightly distressed process, balancing readability with a deliberately imperfect, expressive surface.
In the text sample, the irregularity is most noticeable at joins and terminals, where strokes pinch and flare, creating a lively sparkle. The numerals follow the same handwritten serif logic, keeping the set cohesive for display-oriented compositions.
