A slanted serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a calligraphic stroke flow. The letterforms show moderate stroke modulation with gently tapered terminals and a smooth, continuous rhythm across words. Proportions are balanced with a conventional x-height, open counters, and slightly narrow, elegant capitals; ascenders and descenders are relatively long, giving lines a graceful vertical reach. Numerals align with the text style, keeping similar modulation and serif treatment for a cohesive texture.
Well-suited for continuous reading in books, long-form articles, and magazine layouts where an elegant italic voice is needed. It also fits formal communications such as invitations, programs, and pull quotes, where a refined, traditional tone helps set the mood.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book and editorial typography. Its slant and tapered details add a cultured, slightly romantic voice without becoming ornamental.
Likely designed as a conventional text serif italic that prioritizes comfortable reading and a composed typographic color while adding a touch of sophistication through calligraphic modulation and restrained detailing.
The italic construction maintains strong readability through clear entry/exit strokes and stable character shapes, producing an even color in paragraph settings. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the serif treatment stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
