A decorative serif with pronounced stroke contrast and compact proportions, built from relatively narrow, upright forms. Stems and arms finish in sharp, flared serifs and frequent forked or spurred terminals, with many glyphs featuring inward curls and ball-like details. Curves are taut and slightly irregular in a lively way, while counters stay relatively small, creating a crisp, ink-trap-free silhouette that reads as deliberately ornamental rather than text-neutral.
Best suited to display roles where its ornate terminals can be appreciated—headlines, short captions, posters, book covers, and themed packaging. It also works well for event materials such as invitations or menus when a whimsical, vintage voice is desired, but it may feel busy in dense body text or at very small sizes.
The overall tone feels theatrical and mischievous—equal parts antique and playful. Its curlicues and spiky serifs suggest fairy-tale titling, vintage ephemera, and a lightly gothic, Halloween-adjacent mood without becoming heavy or distressed.
The design appears intended to provide a characterful, decorative serif for titling, combining high-contrast construction with forked serifs and curled detailing to create immediate personality and period flavor.
Capitals are especially expressive, with swirling internal strokes in letters like C, G, and Q, and pointed, banner-like serifs on straight-sided forms. The numerals echo the same curving, ornamented logic, with distinctive loops and angled entry/exit strokes that keep the set cohesive.
