A calligraphic serif design with tapered, brush-like strokes and subtly flared terminals that suggest a broad-nib or pointed-pen influence. Letterforms are compact and slightly irregular in rhythm, with gently angular curves and occasional hooked or flicked endings that add movement. Serifs are not rigidly bracketed; instead they appear as soft, inked swellings and small wedges, giving the outlines a hand-drawn crispness while maintaining consistent structure across the set. Numerals follow the same chiseled, flicked terminal language, reading clearly while keeping the lively, penned texture.
It suits display roles where personality is welcome: book covers and chapter titles, fantasy or historical-themed branding, event materials, and short editorial headlines. In larger sizes it highlights the pen-like terminals and rhythmic irregularities, making it effective for posters, pull quotes, and packaging accents that aim for a crafted, old-world mood.
The font conveys an old-world, storybook tone—expressive and slightly theatrical without becoming overly ornate. Its hand-rendered energy and subtle quirks create a crafted, human feel that can read as folkloric, medieval, or fantasy-adjacent depending on context.
The design appears intended to blend legibility with a hand-calligraphed character, offering formal serif letterforms enlivened by pen-driven tapers and small flourishes. It prioritizes narrative atmosphere and a crafted texture over strict geometric regularity.
The mix of sharp joins, tapered entries, and modest stroke swelling creates a dynamic texture on the line, especially in mixed case. The lowercase has a relatively small presence compared to capitals, reinforcing a traditional, manuscript-like color in paragraph settings.
