A tall, slender handwritten print with a gentle, slightly wobbly stroke and pronounced contrast from pen pressure. Letterforms are narrow and mostly upright, with long ascenders and deep, looping descenders that create an airy vertical rhythm. Terminals tend to be tapered or softly rounded, and the overall drawing shows intentional irregularities in width and spacing that reinforce a hand-rendered texture. Uppercase shapes are simple and open, while lowercase forms lean into narrow bowls and elongated stems, keeping the texture light and breathy in text.
Well-suited to display and short-to-medium text where a human, illustrative voice is desired—such as book covers, packaging labels, invitations, greeting cards, and poster headlines. It can also work for pull quotes and captions at comfortable sizes where its fine strokes remain clear.
The font reads as playful and personable, with a lightly theatrical, storybook tone. Its spidery elegance and bouncy rhythm give it a quirky charm that feels informal rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to emulate neat hand-lettered print with a light touch—combining narrow, tall proportions with subtle pen-pressure contrast to produce a charming, informal voice for decorative typography.
Counters are generally open and the narrow proportions keep words compact, but the thin horizontals and delicate joins can feel fragile at small sizes. Numerals follow the same narrow, handwritten logic with modest, readable forms and occasional flourished curves.
