A calligraphic roman with gently tapered, slightly flared terminals and modest stroke modulation that suggests a broad-pen influence. Letterforms are upright with a subtly uneven, hand-drawn rhythm: stems can swell and narrow, curves are softly irregular, and widths vary noticeably across the set. The capitals feel open and lightly decorative, while the lowercase stays readable with rounded bowls, single-storey forms where expected, and a compact x-height that leaves generous ascender/descender presence. Numerals follow the same drawn, slightly organic construction with smooth curves and small terminal flicks.
Well-suited to short-to-medium text where a refined handwritten voice is desired, such as book and chapter titles, pull quotes, menus, invitations, and boutique branding or packaging. It can also work in editorial settings for display and subheads, where its lively texture adds personality while remaining legible.
The overall tone is warm and literary, balancing formality with a personable, human touch. Its gentle irregularities and flared endings evoke traditional pen lettering and give text a slightly whimsical, storybook character rather than a strict, engraved feel.
The design appears intended to mimic formal hand lettering in an upright, unconnected style—combining traditional calligraphic contrast cues with approachable, slightly irregular contours to create a distinctive, human reading texture.
Spacing appears intentionally airy, helping the irregular stroke rhythm remain clear in running text. Several letters show small entry/exit flicks and softened corners that reinforce the handcrafted impression without becoming connected script.
