A slanted serif with calligraphic construction and bracketed serifs, showing a steady rhythm and moderate stroke modulation. The curves carry a noticeable diagonal stress, and many terminals finish with soft teardrop or hooked endings that keep the texture lively rather than rigid. Uppercase forms are proportionally traditional with crisp joins and tapered strokes, while the lowercase shows compact bowls, open counters, and a gently varied cursive flow. Numerals follow the same italic movement, with elegant curves and clear differentiation between figures.
Well-suited to book and editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, captions, and literary passages. It can also serve in refined display lines—chapter openers, pull quotes, or invitations—when a traditional, elegant italic is desired.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking bookish refinement and editorial polish. Its italic stance and soft terminals add a human, expressive warmth while remaining formal enough for traditional typography.
Likely designed as a conventional text italic that balances readability with a distinctly calligraphic, serifed character. The aim appears to be a dependable companion for continuous reading, while providing a graceful, expressive tone for emphasized text.
The slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the serif treatment stays coherent from straight stems to curved letters. The texture reads smooth at text sizes, with slightly animated details (hooks and tapered ends) that become more apparent in display settings.
