A slanted serif with moderate contrast and softly bracketed serifs that keep the forms crisp without feeling sharp. Curves are smooth and slightly generous, with a calm, even rhythm in text; the italic construction reads as true italic rather than simply obliqued, especially in the lower-case with its flowing joins and entry/exit strokes. Capitals are sturdy and traditional, with balanced proportions and restrained detailing, while numerals follow the same classic, slightly calligraphic logic for a cohesive texture across mixed content.
Well-suited to long-form reading environments such as books, essays, and magazine features, particularly where italic is used extensively for emphasis, titles, or foreign terms. It also fits formal documents and refined branding systems that need a classic serif italic for secondary typography or pull quotes.
The overall tone is cultured and traditional, evoking printed literature, editorial writing, and formal correspondence. Its italic voice feels expressive but disciplined, offering a refined emphasis suited to quotation, attribution, and nuanced typographic hierarchy.
Designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with a composed texture and traditional proportions, offering expressive emphasis while maintaining the steadiness expected in editorial typography.
The italic slant is consistent across cases, and the serif treatment stays unobtrusive at text sizes, supporting continuous reading. Spacing appears comfortable in the sample paragraph, producing a stable typographic color with clear word shapes and minimal sparkle.
