This is a slanted serif with a calligraphic, oldstyle construction and gently bracketed, wedge-like serifs. Strokes show a moderate thick–thin modulation and a slightly organic rhythm, with tapered terminals and curved entry/exit strokes that keep counters open. The italic angle is consistent and lively, and the overall texture reads smooth and continuous in text. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and pronounced curves, matching the letterforms’ flowing, pen-influenced logic.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and magazine features where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or continuous reading. It can also work in refined branding and printed collateral—such as invitations or programs—where a traditional, polished tone is desired without becoming overly ornate.
The tone is literary and cultivated, suggesting tradition and careful typesetting rather than display-driven novelty. Its slant and soft modulation add warmth and motion, while the serif detailing maintains a formal, editorial seriousness.
The design appears intended to provide a readable, conventionally structured serif italic with a classical, pen-informed character. It aims to combine editorial practicality with a graceful, expressive cadence for comfortable text and elegant emphasis.
Uppercase forms feel restrained and classical, while lowercase shapes introduce more cursive movement, creating a clear hierarchy in mixed-case settings. The design maintains even color across lines, with balanced spacing that supports sustained reading.
