A decorative serif with gently flared, bracketed serifs and softly sculpted strokes that suggest a calligraphic hand rather than rigid geometry. Curves are slightly irregular and lively, with tapered terminals and subtle swelling through bowls and stems, creating an organic rhythm across words. Capitals are relatively open and rounded with pronounced feet and occasional asymmetric detailing, while the lowercase keeps a traditional two-storey a and single-storey g, a compact e with a small eye, and long, slightly curved ascenders. Numerals follow the same hand-cut feel, with rounded forms and modest stroke modulation that stays consistent at text sizes.
Well suited to book covers, chapter titles, pull quotes, and display copy where a classic-but-playful voice is desirable. It can also work for posters, invitations, and packaging that benefits from a vintage or handcrafted feel, while remaining readable in short text blocks.
The overall tone is warm and slightly whimsical, evoking storybook typography, vintage print, and handcrafted signage. Its gentle eccentricities and soft serif shaping give it a friendly, characterful presence without feeling overly distressed or rough.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif letterforms with a more human, hand-rendered finish—balancing familiar proportions with distinctive, softly flared serifs and expressive terminals to add personality in display settings.
Spacing in the sample text reads relaxed and even, letting the decorative serif details show without crowding. The design leans on distinctive terminals and serif shapes for personality, so it tends to look most characteristic at larger sizes or in short passages where the texture can be appreciated.
