A lively serif with irregular, hand-cut contours and small forked/spurred terminals that show up on stems and entry/exit strokes. The serifs are soft and slightly flared, with subtly notched joins and occasional hooked or wedge-like endings that create a textured silhouette. Letterforms lean on classical proportions but with intentionally uneven curves, wobbly stroke edges, and varied internal spacing; round letters are slightly squarish and the overall rhythm is organic rather than mechanical. Numerals and capitals share the same decorative spur language, keeping the set visually consistent across the alphabet and figures.
Best suited for display use such as titles, headlines, and short passages where its spurred terminals and roughened detailing can be appreciated. It works well for themed packaging, posters, book covers, and branding that aims for a vintage, handcrafted, or whimsical identity.
The tone is old-world and storybook, suggesting printed folklore, antiquarian shop signage, or a lightly gothic, eccentric charm. Its imperfect edges and quirky terminals read as human and crafted, leaning playful rather than formal.
The design appears intended to evoke historical, print-like character with a deliberately handmade finish, using forked terminals and small spurs to add personality and texture without relying on high-contrast strokes.
In text, the spurs and notches create a peppered texture that becomes more pronounced at smaller sizes, while larger settings highlight the decorative terminals and bouncy baseline feel. The varied widths and irregular counters give it a distinctive, slightly mischievous color on the page.
