A slanted serif with tapered, flared stroke endings and a gently calligraphic construction. Strokes show moderate contrast with soft, bracket-like transitions into terminals, giving curves a smooth, drawn quality rather than a rigid geometric feel. Proportions run relatively tight, with compact letterforms and lively, slightly irregular rhythm typical of italic text faces. The lowercase maintains a balanced x-height with graceful ascenders/descenders, while capitals are sharp and poised, with angled joins and subtly swelling stems.
Well-suited for editorial typography where an expressive italic is needed for emphasis, leads, pull quotes, and refined headlines. It can also work in book interiors for chapter openers or section titles, and in formal communications where a classic, crafted feel is desirable.
The overall tone feels classical and bookish, with an elegant, human touch. Its italic energy adds movement and emphasis, suggesting tradition, craft, and a slightly dramatic editorial voice rather than a neutral modern one.
Likely designed to provide a warm, traditional italic voice with a calligraphic undercurrent, balancing readability with expressive stroke endings. The flared terminals and moderate contrast aim to create a refined texture that stands out in display and remains comfortable in short to medium text settings.
The numerals and capitals share the same flared, tapering logic as the lowercase, keeping a cohesive texture across mixed content. Curved letters exhibit smooth modulation, and the italic slant is consistent, supporting fluent word shapes in running text.
