A decorative serif with an intentionally uneven, cut-paper/hand-carved look. Strokes are sturdy and mostly monolinear with moderate contrast created by abrupt joins and wedge-like terminals rather than smooth modulation. The letterforms show angular, flared serifs, faceted curves, and occasional notched or “bitten” corners that produce a jittery, animated silhouette. Spacing and widths vary noticeably, giving lines a bouncy rhythm and a textured color on the page.
Best suited for display settings where personality is the priority: posters, event graphics, packaging, covers, and brand marks that want a quirky, handcrafted flavor. It holds up well at larger sizes where the notches and angular terminals can read clearly; for extended small-size text it may feel busy due to its irregular rhythm.
The overall tone is mischievous and slightly chaotic—more theatrical than formal. It evokes a vintage poster sensibility with a DIY, oddball energy that reads as humorous and attention-seeking rather than refined.
The design appears intended to inject novelty and motion into otherwise traditional serif structures, using deliberate irregularities, carved terminals, and variable widths to create a one-off, expressive voice for standout typography.
Capitals feel blocky and sign-like, while the lowercase leans more calligraphic in places, creating a deliberate mismatch that adds character. Numerals follow the same chiseled logic with blunt curves and angular cut-ins, keeping the set visually cohesive.
