A slanted serif with sturdy, weighty strokes and softly bracketed serifs that read as rounded and slightly blunted rather than sharp. The forms show a gently calligraphic construction: curves swell subtly, joins are smooth, and several terminals end in teardrop-like shapes. Capitals are broad and open with generous counters, while lowercase combines compact bowls with energetic ascenders and descenders. Numerals are full and rounded, matching the letterforms’ soft edges and steady rhythm.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and short passages where a bold, personable serif can carry tone. It can also support branding and packaging that want a classic, crafted voice, and it has the presence to work on book covers and promotional typography.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a lightly old-style, editorial feel. Its italicized movement and softened details give it a personable, slightly nostalgic character without becoming ornamental.
This design appears intended to blend conventional serif structure with a more human, calligraphic italic energy, prioritizing warmth and readability while maintaining strong visual authority.
The texture is dark and even, making it impactful at display sizes while still retaining clear interior space in letters like O, Q, e, and a. The italic slant is consistent across the set and contributes to a continuous forward rhythm in running text.
