A serif italic with oldstyle proportions and a steady, moderately contrasted stroke. The serifs are bracketed and softly tapered, giving a fluid, pen-informed construction rather than sharp, mechanical terminals. Curves are full and open, with rounded bowls and generous counters, while the italic slant is consistent and readable across both uppercase and lowercase. Spacing and rhythm feel even in text, with clear word shapes and a gently dynamic baseline flow typical of conventional book italics.
Well suited for long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, especially for emphasis, quotations, captions, and italic conventions within roman text. It also fits refined branding moments where a traditional, literary italic is needed—such as cultural institutions, publishing, and formal invitations—without overpowering the page.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, suggesting editorial authority and a quietly elegant voice. Its slanted, calligraphic touch adds warmth and motion without becoming ornate, making it feel literary and established rather than decorative or trendy.
Likely designed as a versatile text italic that prioritizes readability and a classic typographic voice. The goal appears to be a familiar, dependable serif italic with subtle calligraphic nuance, suitable for sustained use and conventional typography.
Uppercase forms keep a restrained, classical presence, while the lowercase shows more cursive energy in letters like a, e, f, and y. Numerals appear lining in height and follow the same italic stress, matching the text color and keeping a cohesive, text-oriented personality.
