A decorative serif with rugged, hand-worked contours and pronounced, flared serifs. Strokes show irregular edge texture and subtle tapering, as if cut or chiseled rather than drawn with a uniform pen. Letterforms are slightly condensed in places with uneven stroke rhythm, giving the alphabet a lively, uneven color in text. Round forms (like O and 0) are faceted and not perfectly circular, while joins and terminals often end in sharp, wedge-like points.
Best suited for display typography such as fantasy or folklore titles, chapter headings, posters, and themed branding where texture and character are desirable. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when you want an old-world, handcrafted feel, but its irregular detailing is likely to be most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels medieval and storybook-like, with a rustic, handcrafted character. Its jagged edges and angular terminals add a hint of the uncanny and theatrical, making it suited to fantasy or old-world themes rather than neutral reading.
The design appears intended to evoke hand-carved or hand-inked lettering with an antique, medieval flavor. Its controlled irregularities and flared serif construction prioritize personality and atmosphere over strict typographic neutrality.
Capitals read as sturdy and emblematic, with strong silhouettes and prominent serifs that hold up well at display sizes. Lowercase forms retain the same carved texture and can look intentionally rough in continuous text, which becomes part of the font’s personality.
