A slanted serif with bracketed serifs and a calligraphic, inked texture. Strokes show moderate contrast with softly tapered terminals and subtle swelling through curves, giving letters a slightly irregular, hand-formed rhythm while remaining consistent across the set. The capitals are compact and sturdy, with rounded joins and modest entry/exit flicks, while the lowercase has smooth, flowing connections and gently extended ascenders/descenders. Counters are fairly open and the numerals follow the same angled, serifed construction for a cohesive text color.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a classic italic voice is desired. It can also serve effectively in brand marks, packaging copy, and invitations that benefit from a formal but approachable, handwritten-leaning serif presence.
The overall tone feels traditional and literary, with a warm, human cadence that reads as established and trustworthy rather than sharp or clinical. Its energetic slant and brushlike modulation add a lively, personable character suited to expressive but still conventional typography.
Likely intended to provide a traditional italic serif with a visibly calligraphic flavor, balancing readability with expressive stroke movement. The design emphasizes a familiar bookish structure while adding warmth through soft terminals, bracketed serifs, and subtle stroke modulation.
In text, the face creates a dark, even texture with noticeable motion from the slant and the repeated curved terminals. The italic forms carry small swashes and entry strokes that add personality, making spacing and word shapes feel dynamic, especially in headings and short passages.
