A slanted, high-contrast serif with strongly modulated strokes and a calligraphic, diagonal-stress feel. Capitals are wide and stately with pronounced thick–thin transitions and bracketed serifs that taper to crisp terminals. The lowercase shows flowing, slightly variable letter widths and lively entry/exit strokes; round letters are gently ovalized, and joins are smooth, giving the face a continuous, rhythmic texture. Numerals appear as oldstyle figures with ascenders and descenders, matching the text color and movement of the lowercase.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where an expressive italic voice is desired, especially for emphasis, headings, pull quotes, and intros. It can also support refined branding and printed collateral such as invitations or programs where a classic, formal tone is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, with an elegant, bookish character. Its italic energy adds a sense of motion and refinement, suggesting literary or editorial settings rather than utilitarian UI typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif structure infused with a distinctly calligraphic italic rhythm. It aims for a polished, literary impression while preserving a stable, readable texture across continuous text.
Spacing reads open and measured in the sample text, helping the high contrast stay legible at display-to-text sizes. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, gracefully angled line of text.
