A hand-drawn, print-style serif with chunky stems, tapered joins, and sharp wedge-like terminals that flare and pinch in an uneven, lively way. Stroke endings often form small triangular points and bulb-like feet, producing a jagged silhouette and a slightly wobbly baseline/edge feel even though the letters remain upright. Counters are compact and somewhat irregular, and overall spacing feels intentionally bouncy, with noticeable variation in widths across letters and numerals. The lowercase shows sturdy, simplified forms with prominent verticals and minimal connecting cues, keeping the texture dense and dark on the line.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing settings such as headlines, posters, book or game titles, packaging labels, and event promotions where personality is more important than quiet readability. It also works well for themed materials (folklore, fantasy, vintage craft) and punchy pull quotes when set with generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone is mischievous and theatrical, like a classic storybook display face with a handmade, cut-paper edge. Its sharp serifs and uneven rhythm add a whimsical, slightly spooky flavor that reads as crafted rather than polished.
The design appears intended to evoke a handcrafted, storybook-inspired display look—combining sturdy, legible letter skeletons with expressive wedge serifs and irregular finishing to create charm, movement, and a slightly dramatic edge.
At text sizes it produces a heavy, textured color; the pointed terminals and tight counters can make long passages feel busy, while headlines gain character and bite. Numerals match the same chiseled, wedge-terminal logic, reinforcing a cohesive, decorative voice.
