This is an italic serif with an oldstyle, humanist skeleton and gently tapered strokes. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with subtle flaring at terminals that gives the forms a slightly calligraphic finish. The italics show clear cursive construction in places (notably the lowercase), with smooth entry/exit strokes, angled stress, and a lively, right-leaning rhythm. Proportions feel traditional and text-oriented, with open counters, moderate ascenders/descenders, and figures that follow the same italic cadence rather than standing rigidly upright.
It suits long-form reading and editorial typography where an italic voice needs to feel classic and steady—chapters, pull quotes, captions, and front matter. It can also work well for refined short-form applications such as invitations or cultural branding where a traditional serif italic conveys sophistication without feeling ornate.
The overall tone is bookish and cultivated—more literary and traditional than trendy. Its soft modulation and calligraphic cues add warmth and tactility while staying disciplined enough for formal, editorial settings.
The font appears designed to provide a conventional, readable italic serif with a historically rooted, calligraphy-informed flavor. Its emphasis is on balanced text texture and smooth rhythm, aiming for dependable performance in editorial composition while adding a touch of elegance.
The design maintains consistent italic momentum across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive texture in running text. Letterforms balance clarity with elegance: strokes remain sturdy while terminals and serifs provide the personality, resulting in a smooth reading color rather than high-drama contrast.
