A decorative serif with calligraphic, slightly irregular construction and flared wedge-like terminals. Strokes show moderate contrast and frequent swelling into teardrop or spur endings, creating a lively, uneven rhythm across words. Capitals are tall and characterful with narrow joins and occasional pointed interior notches, while lowercase forms keep a compact, readable skeleton but introduce quirky asymmetries and angular cuts. Numerals echo the same flared, old-style feel, with curving bodies and sharp finishing strokes.
Well suited to display roles such as book and chapter titles, posters, packaging, and themed event materials where a historic or fantastical mood is desired. It can work for short blurbs or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, but the ornamental detailing is most effective when given room to breathe.
The overall tone feels old-world and storybook, with a hint of gothic eccentricity. Its spiky terminals and uneven texture give it a handcrafted, folkloric character that reads as theatrical rather than strictly formal.
The design appears intended to evoke a handcrafted, historically flavored serif with expressive terminals and a deliberately quirky rhythm, prioritizing atmosphere and personality over neutral text regularity.
In text settings the font produces a dark, animated color with noticeable letter-to-letter personality, especially in capitals. The distinctive terminals and varied stroke endings become a primary texture element, so spacing and line length will strongly affect how busy or calm it appears.
