A narrow, high-contrast serif with a distinctly drawn, calligraphic construction. Strokes swell and taper noticeably, with soft, bracketed serifs and occasional flared terminals that feel ink-driven rather than mechanically uniform. Curves are slightly irregular and organic, and counters run a bit tight in places, giving lines a lively, textured rhythm. Capitals are tall and elegant, while lowercase forms show pronounced ascenders/descenders and varied stroke endings that add personality across words.
Best suited to headlines, book or editorial display, cover typography, and branded phrases where its expressive serif detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for posters, packaging, and event materials that aim for a handcrafted, vintage-leaning tone. For long passages, it will be most comfortable at larger text sizes where the contrast and fine strokes remain clear.
The overall tone is whimsical and literary, suggesting a classic, storybook sensibility with a touch of eccentric charm. Its lively stroke modulation and gently quirky details make it feel human and expressive rather than strictly formal. The font reads as vintage-inspired and theatrical, suitable for designs that want warmth and character.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif structure with a hand-drawn, inked personality—delivering a readable but characterful voice for display typography. Its narrow stance and animated stroke behavior suggest a focus on compact setting with decorative flair, prioritizing mood and distinctiveness over strict neutrality.
In the sample text, the narrow proportions help set longer lines compactly, while the high contrast and distinctive terminals create strong word-shapes. Some glyphs show decorative idiosyncrasies (notably in curved capitals and a few lowercase forms), which enhance personality but can draw attention at smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same tapered, calligraphic logic and sit comfortably alongside the text.
