A tall, condensed serif with bracketed, flared terminals and softly irregular stroke transitions that suggest pen or brush influence. The forms are narrow and vertically stressed, with moderate thick–thin contrast and slightly uneven curves that keep the rhythm lively rather than mechanical. Serifs are small and tapered instead of slabby, and many terminals finish with subtle hooks or bulb-like flicks, giving the outlines a gently quirky, handmade character. Overall spacing feels open for the narrow set width, helping text remain readable while maintaining a distinctive silhouette.
Works well for headlines and short-to-medium text where a classic yet characterful serif is desirable—book covers, editorial pull quotes, posters, and event or wedding stationery. Its condensed proportions also make it useful when space is tight but a traditional serif voice is needed.
The tone reads vintage and literary, like a lightly antiquarian book face with a playful edge. Its narrow, upright stance feels orderly, while the hand-inked quirks add warmth and personality suitable for expressive editorial or themed design.
Likely designed to evoke an old-style, print-era serif while introducing deliberate irregularities for charm and recognizability. The goal appears to be a readable, narrow display-to-text serif that stands out through subtle calligraphic terminals and an artisanal finish.
Capitals are particularly tall and elegant, producing a strong vertical cadence in headlines, while lowercase maintains a steady texture with occasional eccentric details in joins and tails. Numerals follow the same stylized logic, with curving, slightly calligraphic shapes that feel consistent with the letterforms.
