A heavy, flared display face with uneven, hand-cut geometry and lively stroke modulation. Terminals frequently splay into wedge-like or fin-shaped ends, creating a chiseled silhouette without strict serif logic. Curves are slightly squashed and asymmetrical, counters vary from letter to letter, and overall spacing feels intentionally irregular for a bouncy rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry the same chunky, sculpted forms, with distinctive cut-ins and angled joins that read clearly at larger sizes.
Best suited to short-form display settings such as posters, headlines, book covers, playful branding, and packaging where its chunky forms and quirky rhythm can be appreciated. It performs especially well in larger sizes and in single words or short phrases where the irregular texture becomes an asset.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a cartoonish, storybook energy. Its irregularities and exaggerated terminals give it a theatrical, slightly vintage flavor—more like hand-made signage or cut-paper lettering than a conventional text face.
Likely designed to inject personality and humor through sculpted, flared terminals and intentionally imperfect construction. The goal appears to be a distinctive, one-off voice for attention-grabbing display typography rather than neutral readability.
Verticals often feel subtly tapered, and many letters show sharp interior notches or small incisions that add texture to the black shapes. The design prioritizes character and silhouette over strict uniformity, which can create charming word shapes but also a deliberately uneven typographic color in paragraphs.
