A lively serif with flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that broaden into soft, slightly curved terminals. Strokes show a gently modulated, calligraphic feel, with rounded joins and subtly irregular contours that keep the texture animated rather than mechanical. Proportions are compact with sturdy verticals, open counters, and a slightly bouncy rhythm across the alphabet; the numerals share the same softened, tapered details for a cohesive color in text.
This font suits headlines and display typography where its flared terminals and organic rhythm can be appreciated, such as posters, packaging, and editorial cover work. It can also support short passages or pull quotes when a warm, handcrafted serif voice is desired.
The overall tone feels warm and characterful, suggesting a hand-touched, storybook sensibility rather than strict classicism. Its flared terminals and buoyant shapes read as friendly and informal, with an old-world craft flavor that stays approachable.
The design appears aimed at combining a traditional serif structure with more expressive, hand-influenced finishing strokes. Its flared terminals and softened geometry suggest an intention to evoke craft and personality while remaining legible and broadly usable in display and editorial contexts.
In larger settings the distinctive flares and curved wedges become a key identifying feature, while in paragraph sizes the letterforms maintain a dark, even presence with clear silhouettes. Round letters (like O/C) stay open and smooth, and straight-sided forms (like E/F/L) keep their edges softened by the flared finishing strokes.
