This is an italic serif with calligraphic modulation and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes show a clear diagonal stress with moderately flared entry/exit terminals, giving counters a slightly teardrop character. Proportions feel traditional and compact, with smooth curves, crisp joins, and a steady rhythm that keeps letterforms cohesive. The capitals are elegant and slightly wider in stance, while the lowercase has fluid ascenders and a readable, rounded texture in continuous text.
Well-suited for book typography, magazine text, and other editorial layouts where an italic companion is used for emphasis, quotations, or headings. It can also work for refined branding, invitations, and packaging that benefits from a traditional, slightly expressive italic voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting a cultivated, editorial voice. Its slanted, pen-like movement adds warmth and expressiveness without becoming decorative, balancing refinement with everyday readability.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that reads smoothly in running copy while preserving a classic, pen-influenced character. Its proportions and moderated contrast aim for a dependable texture and an understated sense of tradition.
The italic forms maintain strong differentiation between similar shapes, and the numerals follow the same angled, serifed construction for a consistent text color. Terminals and serifs stay sharp enough for print-like clarity, while the moderate contrast keeps the texture even in paragraph settings.
