A sturdy italic serif with rounded, bracketed serifs and noticeably softened corners. Strokes are thick and slightly irregular in a way that suggests an inked or printed texture rather than geometric precision, with gentle modulation through curves and joins. The italic slant is consistent and readable, and the overall color is dense, especially in capitals and numerals. Spacing and proportions feel traditional, with open counters and compact, well-supported lowercase forms that maintain clarity at display and text sizes.
Works well for editorial headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and short-to-medium reading passages where a strong italic voice is desired. Its bold presence and softened detailing also suit packaging, posters, and brand wordmarks that want a classic serif feel with an approachable edge.
The face conveys a warm, slightly old-fashioned tone—confident and legible, but with a human, crafted character. Its softened serifs and lively stroke endings add friendliness and a touch of vintage editorial charm without becoming overly decorative.
Likely designed to provide a conventional serif foundation with a more expressive italic—combining traditional proportions and bracketed serifs with softened, ink-like shaping for a warmer, more tactile impression in print-style typography.
Capitals have broad, stable silhouettes and prominent head and foot serifs, giving headings a strong anchor on the line. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, matching the letterforms’ softened terminals and maintaining an even, robust rhythm across mixed text.
