This typeface is a serif italic with a steady, book-oriented rhythm and moderately sculpted strokes. Serifs are clearly bracketed and slightly tapered, with a smooth, calligraphic modulation that produces gentle diagonal stress in rounded forms. Capitals are dignified and relatively wide-set, while the lowercase shows a lively slant, open apertures, and softly swelling curves; ascenders are prominent and the overall spacing feels even and readable. Numerals follow the same italic logic, with curved, old-style-like movement and consistent weight relationships across the set.
It suits extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a conventional serif italic is needed for emphasis or continuous italic settings. It also works well for literary or cultural titles, pull quotes, and formal printed materials such as programs and invitations where a refined, traditional voice is desired.
The font conveys a traditional, literary tone—polished and authoritative without feeling stiff. Its italic motion adds warmth and narrative energy, suggesting editorial sophistication and classic publishing.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional serif italic for text typography, balancing classic proportions with enough calligraphic movement to feel expressive in running copy.
The italic construction is pronounced, with rounded joins and smooth entry/exit strokes that keep texture continuous in text. Letterforms like the lowercase a, e, and g emphasize flowing curves and clear counters, supporting legibility in longer passages while maintaining a distinctly serifed character.
