This typeface is a serif italic with a calligraphic, oldstyle construction and gently modulated strokes. Serifs are soft and bracketed, with tapered terminals and a slightly uneven, hand-formed rhythm that gives the outlines an organic feel. Curves are generous and round, joins are smooth, and the overall texture reads as lively rather than rigid, with noticeable variation in character widths and a flowing rightward slant.
It suits short-to-medium runs of text where an italic voice is desired—book and article titles, pull quotes, introductions, and editorial accents. The decorative serif detailing also makes it a good fit for invitations, boutique packaging, and brand applications that want a classic yet slightly playful tone.
The tone feels literary and classical, like a bookish italic with a subtle handmade warmth. Its slightly whimsical irregularity adds a friendly, expressive flavor without becoming overly eccentric, making it feel vintage and personable.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic serif with a human, pen-influenced character—balancing traditional proportions with a more expressive, decorative stroke and terminal treatment for added personality.
The italic angle and variable character widths create a dynamic line that can look animated in longer text. Figures follow the same calligraphic logic, with soft curves and tapered strokes that blend naturally with the letters.
