A slanted serif with moderate stroke modulation and clearly bracketed serifs that soften joins and terminals. The letterforms show a calligraphic, oldstyle influence: rounded bowls, tapered strokes, and gently cupped entry/exit strokes that create a lively rhythm in text. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed, with open counters and a smooth, continuous italic flow; capitals are dignified and slightly restrained, while lowercase forms maintain an even, readable texture.
Well-suited for long-form reading such as books, essays, and magazine features where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, or extended quotations. It can also support refined display roles—titles, pull quotes, and formal stationery—when a traditional, expressive serif italic is desired.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, with an editorial sophistication that feels at home in traditional publishing. Its italic motion adds warmth and expressiveness without becoming overly decorative, giving it a poised, literary character.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif italic that balances readability with classic polish. Its bracketed serifs and moderated contrast suggest a focus on comfortable paragraph color while preserving an elegant, expressive italic cadence.
Figures align well with the text style and carry the same italic slant and serifed finishing, supporting consistent typographic color across mixed alphanumeric settings. The italic construction emphasizes smooth diagonals and curved strokes, producing a cohesive, flowing line in longer passages.
