This typeface is a serif italic with sturdy, dark color and clear, bracketed serifs. Strokes show a gently calligraphic construction with oblique stress, producing rounded joins and subtly tapered curves rather than sharp, mechanical transitions. The italic is expressive without being overly cursive: many lowercase forms lean decisively while remaining compact and text-oriented, and the capitals keep a formal structure with slightly flared, wedge-like finishing strokes. Spacing and rhythm feel lively and slightly variable, with pronounced diagonals in letters like v, w, x, y, and a distinctive, looped italic f and flowing r.
It suits editorial typography where a strong italic is needed for emphasis, as well as book and long-form reading when used for headings, pull quotes, and secondary text. The weight and lively slant also make it effective for magazine headlines, classic branding, and packaging that benefits from a traditional, literary voice.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, with a warm, editorial feel that suggests traditional publishing and formal writing. Its strong italic voice adds emphasis and personality, giving text a confident, slightly dramatic cadence suitable for quotations, titles, and highlighted passages.
The design appears intended to provide a robust, traditional serif italic with enough calligraphic influence to feel expressive, while preserving the discipline and readability expected of conventional text faces. Its forms prioritize a confident italic rhythm and a darker presence that holds up well in prominent settings.
Figures appear oldstyle with varying heights and extenders, reinforcing a traditional text flavor. The italic forms are notably energetic, with curved entry/exit strokes and a consistent forward motion that stays readable at text sizes while becoming more characterful in display settings.
