A high-contrast italic serif with flowing, calligraphic construction and clearly bracketed serifs. Stems swell and taper with a pronounced diagonal stress, giving the letters a lively rhythm and a slightly sculpted texture on the line. Capitals are broad and stable with crisp, wedge-like finishing, while the lowercase shows generous curves, tapered terminals, and a distinctly italic entry/exit logic. Numerals share the same modulation and angled momentum, producing a cohesive, traditional text color despite the dynamic slant.
This face suits editorial typography such as book interiors, magazines, and long-form text where an elegant italic voice is needed. It also performs well for refined display applications—chapter openers, pull quotes, invitations, and brand marks—where its contrast and calligraphic energy can be featured at larger sizes.
The overall tone is classic and refined, with a distinctly literary, editorial feel. Its sweeping italics and sharp serifs convey sophistication and a touch of formality, suggesting tradition and craft rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended as a conventional serif with an expressive italic that brings calligraphic motion to traditional proportions. It aims to balance readability with a polished, classical tone, offering a graceful emphasis style that remains firmly rooted in book-oriented typography.
Round forms like O/Q and the bowls in b/p show strong thick–thin contrast, and the slanted axis is consistent across the set. The italic rhythm is pronounced in letters with extended strokes (such as f, y, and the capital swashes), which adds personality and movement while keeping an orthodox serif foundation.
