A tall, spindly slab serif with crisp, square-ended terminals and a noticeably airy color on the page. Strokes stay mostly even in weight, with long ascenders/descenders and compact bowls that emphasize verticality. Serifs are small and unbracketed, reading as thin rectangular caps at the ends of stems, and many joins and terminals have a slightly idiosyncratic, hand-drawn cleanliness rather than strict geometric repetition. Spacing is relatively open, and the overall rhythm feels light and slightly irregular in a controlled way, helping the alphabet retain character while remaining readable in words.
This design is well suited to display typography: headlines, posters, book covers, packaging, and invitation work where a slender, characterful slab serif can set an expressive mood. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers in editorial layouts, especially when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The tone is whimsical and lightly eccentric, with a vintage storybook or boutique editorial feel. Its narrow, elongated forms create an elegant but playful voice—more curious and personable than formal—suited to titles that want charm without turning into novelty.
The font appears designed to blend slab-serif structure with a delicate, elongated silhouette, prioritizing personality and vertical elegance over dense text color. Its consistent stroke weight and square serif treatment suggest an intention to stay clean and legible while still feeling distinctive and slightly whimsical.
In sample text, the font holds together best at medium-to-large sizes where the fine serifs and thin strokes don’t disappear. The numerals and capitals share the same tall, linear stance, and rounded letters (like O/Q) keep a narrow oval profile that reinforces the condensed feel.
