A slanted serif with flowing, calligraphic construction and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes show noticeable modulation with tapered terminals, producing a smooth rhythm and an elegant diagonal pull across words. Capitals are restrained and classical, while the lowercase is more animated, with single-storey forms where expected and soft, curved joins that keep the texture open and even. Numerals follow the same italic logic, with rounded bowls and delicate finishing strokes that feel consistent with the letterforms.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where an elegant italic texture is desirable. It also works for literary titles, pull quotes, and formal communications such as invitations or programs, especially at medium to large sizes where the tapered details can be appreciated.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, conveying a sense of polish and formality without looking stiff. Its italic voice reads as expressive and cultivated, suggesting editorial sophistication and a historical, bookish warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with a distinctly italic, calligraphic flavor. Its aim is to balance classical proportion and readability with graceful motion and refined finishing details.
The design maintains a consistent slant and spacing that supports continuous reading, while the terminals and serifs add a subtle sparkle at larger sizes. The italic emphasis is pronounced enough to function as a primary text style, not only as a companion accent.
