A lively, calligraphic serif with organic stroke shapes and a gently uneven rhythm that reads as hand-drawn rather than mechanical. Stems show subtle swelling and tapering, with flared and occasionally wedge-like terminals that suggest a broad-pen influence. The capitals are open and slightly animated in posture, while the lowercase keeps a clear, readable structure with modest ascenders and descenders and lightly varied stroke endings. Numerals follow the same handmade logic, with soft curves, angled cuts, and small idiosyncrasies that create a consistent, crafted texture in text.
Well-suited for display settings where personality matters—book covers, chapter headings, posters, packaging, and boutique branding. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when a warm, handcrafted texture is desired and generous line spacing is available.
The overall tone feels friendly and storybook-like, combining a touch of old-world charm with playful quirk. Its slightly irregular letterforms and spirited terminals give it an inviting, human presence suitable for expressive, characterful typography.
Likely designed to capture the charm of hand-rendered, formal lettering—structured enough for clear reading, but deliberately irregular to preserve a human, illustrative feel. The flared terminals and pen-like modulation aim to evoke classic calligraphy translated into a versatile, text-capable style.
Spacing and silhouettes feel intentionally varied, creating a bouncy color in paragraphs without losing legibility. Several forms show narrow entry/exit strokes and occasional angular notches, reinforcing a drawn, tool-made impression.
