This typeface is an italic serif with a calm, bookish rhythm and gently modulated strokes. Serifs are bracketed and unobtrusive, with softly tapered terminals that keep the texture smooth in continuous text. The lowercase shows a traditional oldstyle structure with a two-storey “a,” an open “e,” and a single-storey “g,” while ascenders are relatively tall and slightly curved, reinforcing the handwritten italic influence. Capitals are restrained and elegant, with moderate proportions and subtle entry strokes; numerals follow the same slanted, text-oriented style and sit comfortably alongside the letters.
It works well for extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or introductions. It can also serve in refined print materials—programs, announcements, or academic documents—where a traditional, legible serif italic is appropriate.
Overall it conveys a composed, literary tone—polished and traditional rather than loud or decorative. The steady slant and rounded details give it a courteous, humanist warmth suited to long-form reading while still feeling appropriately formal for professional communication.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable italic companion for text typography, prioritizing a smooth reading texture, conservative letterforms, and a classic serif vocabulary over overt stylistic novelty.
Spacing and letterfit appear tuned for paragraph color, producing an even grey value in the sample text. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the design avoids sharp, brittle details in favor of smooth joins and readable apertures.
