This typeface combines upright, serifed capitals with a more calligraphic lowercase that leans toward an italic rhythm. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp joins and tapered terminals, and many letters carry bracketed serifs and subtly flared entry/exit strokes. The lowercase forms are compact and somewhat cursive in construction (notably in letters like a, g, y, and f), while the capitals read more structured and inscriptional, creating a deliberate mixed-texture color across words. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with rounded bowls and fine hairlines that give them a traditional, bookish presence.
It is well suited to headlines, book covers, editorial display typography, and branding where a classic, calligraphic voice is desired. It can also work for invitations or formal announcements, especially when the lowercase’s flowing forms are allowed room to breathe at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels formal and literary, with a hint of old-world elegance typical of calligraphy-influenced display faces. Its contrast and refined terminals suggest tradition and ceremony more than casual handwriting, giving text a composed, editorial character.
The design appears intended to evoke traditional pen-and-ink writing while retaining the authority and clarity of serifed capitals. By pairing structured uppercase shapes with a more script-like lowercase, it aims to deliver a refined, expressive voice for display typography.
The font’s personality comes from the interplay between disciplined uppercase forms and a more written, slightly swashy lowercase. This contrast can add charm and emphasis in headline settings, but it also makes typographic color vary noticeably depending on capitalization and letter mix.
