A slanted serif with calligraphic construction and gently tapered, flared stroke endings. The letterforms show moderate stroke modulation, with soft, bracketed joins and a rhythmic diagonal stress in rounded shapes. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places, with long, graceful extenders and a lively baseline flow typical of italics. Serifs and terminals are sharp yet not brittle, creating a smooth, continuous texture in text while keeping distinct forms in capitals and numerals.
Well suited for book and long-form editorial settings where an italic with personality is needed for emphasis, quotations, and display lines. It can also work for refined branding, cultural institutions, and invitations where a classic, polished tone is desired without feeling overly rigid.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, evoking classic editorial typography and traditional book italics. Its slant and flared terminals add warmth and motion, giving text a cultivated, expressive voice rather than a strictly neutral one.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic cadence, using flared terminals and moderated contrast to balance elegance with consistent readability in continuous text.
Capitals appear stately with curved entry/exit strokes, while lowercase forms lean into a humanist, pen-influenced feel that keeps counters open and shapes readable. Numerals follow the same italic rhythm, helping mixed text and figures feel integrated.
