A quirky serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and lively, uneven detailing at terminals. Serifs and stroke endings often flare, fork, or notch, giving many letters a chiseled, spurred finish rather than smooth, bookish endings. Curves are full and round, counters are generous, and joins feel slightly irregular, creating a hand-cut rhythm while maintaining clear, upright structure. Proportions vary noticeably across glyphs, with some letters wider or more compact, enhancing an animated, display-oriented texture.
Best suited to display sizes where the forked, spurred terminals can be appreciated—such as headlines, posters, titles, and branding accents. It can add personality to packaging, event materials, or book covers, and works well for short bursts of copy where a vintage, handcrafted feel is desired.
The font reads as playful and old-fashioned, with a light folkloric or storybook charm. Its decorative spurs and idiosyncratic terminals give it a mischievous, handcrafted tone—more characterful than formal—suggesting vintage signage or whimsical editorial styling.
Designed to deliver a classic serif silhouette with deliberately quirky, ornamental terminals that create an engraved or hand-cut impression. The goal appears to be strong recognizability and charm, prioritizing character and texture for display typography over neutral, long-form readability.
The distinctive terminals are a dominant feature across both uppercase and lowercase, helping headlines feel lively but also adding visual noise in continuous text. Numerals match the same chunky, ornamented style, keeping the overall voice consistent in mixed alphanumeric settings.
