A slanted serif with gently bracketed serifs and tapered stroke endings that give the outlines a drawn, calligraphic feel. Stems are relatively slender with clearly modulated thick–thin transitions, and round letters show smooth, slightly oval bowls. The italic structure is pronounced, with flowing entry/exit strokes, a single-storey a and g, and a descending f with an extended terminal. Numerals and capitals follow the same restrained, crisp detailing, keeping a consistent rhythm suited to continuous reading.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial settings where an italic with strong readability and a traditional serif vocabulary is needed. It can serve comfortably for quotations, emphasis, and secondary text in magazines, essays, and academic materials, and also works for refined headlines when set with generous spacing.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a poised, editorial character rather than a decorative one. Its italic voice reads as cultivated and expressive, suggesting tradition and credibility while remaining understated.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that balances legibility with a hint of calligraphic movement. Its controlled contrast, bracketed serifs, and calm proportions suggest a focus on dependable reading performance in professional publishing contexts.
The design favors clarity over flourish: terminals are sharp but not spiky, curves are steady, and spacing appears even in running text. The italic angle is moderate, helping longer passages stay composed while still conveying emphasis.
