A lively drawn serif with slim strokes and crisp, tapered terminals that often end in sharp points or small flares. The letterforms mix gentle curves with angular joints, creating an irregular, hand-shaped rhythm while remaining generally consistent in construction. Uppercase characters are tall and narrow with distinctive, slightly asymmetric bowls and diagonals; lowercase has a compact x-height with long, expressive ascenders and descenders. Numerals are slender and stylized, with noticeable stroke taper and occasional curving entry/exit strokes.
This font is best suited to short-to-medium text settings where personality is the priority: headlines, posters, book covers, boutique packaging, and distinctive brand marks. It can also work for pull quotes or display-sized editorial accents, where the narrow proportions help fit longer titles without feeling heavy.
The overall tone feels storybook and quirky—elegant at a glance but intentionally imperfect up close. Its sharp, flicked terminals and narrow proportions give it a theatrical, slightly old-world character that reads as crafted rather than mechanical.
The design appears intended to capture the charm of hand-lettered print while keeping recognizable serif structure for readability. It emphasizes expressiveness through taper, pointed terminals, and slight irregularity, aiming for a crafted, narrative-friendly display voice.
Spacing and widths vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a hand-rendered cadence. The design relies on pointed terminals and tapered joins to create motion, which becomes especially noticeable in diagonals and curved letters like S, J, and g.
