A narrow, pen-influenced display face with lively stroke modulation and tapered, pointed terminals. Letterforms show a consistent calligraphic rhythm with occasional swashes and curled joins, especially in capitals and descending lowercase. The overall texture is dark but not heavy, with compact counters and a slightly irregular, hand-drawn finish that keeps repeated strokes from feeling mechanical. Proportions are tight, with small lowercase bodies and long, expressive extenders that add vertical movement in text.
Best suited to display settings where its narrow proportions and flourished extenders can add personality—book covers, event materials, boutique packaging, posters, and branded headlines. It also works for short pull quotes or chapter titles where a handwritten, calligraphic tone is desired, but the small lowercase body suggests avoiding long, dense paragraphs.
The font conveys a playful, storybook formality—decorative and a bit theatrical without becoming overly ornate. Its looping strokes and sharp flicks suggest vintage charm and a handcrafted sensibility, lending an inviting, slightly magical tone to headings and short phrases.
The design appears intended to mimic formal hand-lettering with controlled contrast and decorative terminals, balancing readability with expressive, pen-drawn charm. Its compact structure and animated extenders aim to deliver a distinctive voice in tight spaces while still feeling cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Capitals are notably characterful, mixing broad curves with thin hairline-like connections and occasional entry/exit strokes. Several lowercase forms feature distinctive hooks and looped descenders (notably on letters like g, j, y), creating a bouncy baseline rhythm. Numerals keep the same tapered, calligraphic logic, with rounded forms and subtle flicks at stroke ends.
