A slanted serif with a calligraphic, oldstyle construction and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes show moderated contrast with rounded joins and tapered terminals, producing a smooth, slightly lively texture in text. Proportions feel traditional and readable, with relatively open counters and a steady rhythm; capitals are stable and bookish while the lowercase has a noticeable forward motion. Numerals follow the same angled, serifed logic with curved forms and clear differentiation.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as books, long-form articles, and magazine features, especially for emphasis, quotations, or lead-ins where an italic voice is needed. It can also support formal stationery and invitations when a traditional, refined serif character is desired.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting traditional publishing and cultivated refinement. Its italic energy adds a personable, expressive note without becoming ornamental, balancing elegance with practicality.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, high-readability serif italic with classic proportions and a warm, calligraphic flow, offering an elegant companion voice for text-focused settings.
The italic slant is consistent across cases, and the letterforms lean toward oldstyle shapes (notably in the curved bowls and softly handled terminals). Spacing in the samples reads even and coherent, creating a comfortable, continuous line suitable for sustained reading.
