A slanted serif with gently tapered strokes and clearly bracketed serifs that feel pen-influenced rather than mechanical. Curves are smooth and slightly elastic, with modest contrast and crisp terminals that often end in small wedges or flicks. The capitals are relatively compact with classical proportions, while the lowercase shows a steady rhythm and slightly airy spacing that keeps paragraphs from feeling dense. Numerals follow the same italic construction, with open shapes and consistent stroke tapering.
Well suited to editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine features where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or continuous reading. It also works for refined titling—pull quotes, chapter heads, menus, and formal invitations—especially where a traditional serif tone is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, suggesting bookish sophistication and a quiet sense of formality. Its italic energy reads as expressive but controlled, adding a cultured, editorial flavor rather than a decorative one.
The font appears designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with a touch of calligraphic liveliness. Its goal seems to be an elegant companion for text settings, offering emphasis and hierarchy while preserving a calm, classic texture.
The design leans on continuous, flowing strokes and subtle entry/exit swashes in a few letters, which can add sparkle at larger sizes. In running text it maintains an even texture, while individual glyphs show enough character to support display use in short lines.
