This typeface is a serif italic with a calligraphic, oldstyle flavor and softly bracketed serifs. Strokes show gentle modulation and a consistent forward slant, with rounded joins and tapered terminals that keep the letterforms lively rather than rigid. Capitals are slightly wide and open, while lowercase forms maintain a moderate x-height and a flowing baseline rhythm; several characters feature subtle entry strokes and teardrop-like finishes that add warmth. Overall spacing reads even in text, with a smooth texture that balances sturdy stems against more delicate hairlines.
It suits editorial settings such as book interiors, pull quotes, magazine features, and classical-inspired branding where an expressive italic voice is needed. It can also work well for packaging or labels that benefit from a traditional, crafted tone, especially at text and display sizes where the modulation and terminals can be appreciated.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone with a personable, animated cadence—formal enough for tradition, but warm and slightly playful in motion. Its italic posture and soft serifs suggest refined editorial typography, while the rounded terminals prevent it from feeling austere.
The design appears intended to provide an italic serif with a traditional foundation and a more human, calligraphic sheen—prioritizing a smooth reading rhythm while offering decorative character through terminals and serif shaping.
Figures follow the same italic construction as the letters, with curved strokes and open counters that keep numerals readable in running text. The overall color is dark and stable, but the shapes retain a handwritten influence through tapered ends and gently swelling curves.
