A decorative serif with softly flared, triangular wedge serifs and gently rounded terminals. Strokes remain largely low-contrast, but the outlines show subtle organic irregularities that create a hand-touched texture rather than a strictly geometric build. The forms are narrow and compact with a lively, slightly bouncy baseline feel, and the bowls and counters stay open enough for display use. Capitals have a modest, old-style presence (notably the curved legs and hooked joins), while lowercase shows friendly, calligraphic modulation with distinct, characterful shapes.
Best suited to display sizes where the quirky serif details and handcrafted outlines can be appreciated—such as book and chapter titles, posters, packaging, café or boutique branding, and short editorial headlines. It can work for brief passages or pull quotes when set with comfortable size and leading, but its expressive texture will read as decorative rather than purely utilitarian.
The overall tone is playful and storybook-like, evoking folk print, fantasy signage, or vintage chapter headings. Its irregular warmth keeps it from feeling formal, leaning instead toward charm, curiosity, and a lightly archaic atmosphere.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif construction with an illustrative, hand-rendered flavor, delivering a vintage-yet-friendly voice for creative and narrative-driven typography.
The numerals mirror the same soft, wedge-serif language, with curled or hooked details on figures like 2, 3, and 9 that reinforce the decorative intent. Spacing appears even in text, but the intentionally uneven contouring gives words a textured, hand-crafted rhythm.
