A high-contrast italic serif with calligraphic modulation and bracketed, softly flared serifs. Strokes show clear thick–thin transitions with a diagonal stress, and many forms finish in tapered, slightly hooked terminals. Proportions are moderately wide and fluid, with generous curves, compact counters, and an even, forward-leaning rhythm that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
This face performs well for continuous reading where an italic voice is needed—book and magazine typography, editorial callouts, quotations, and emphasis. It can also suit formal stationery and invitations where a traditional, slightly expressive serif italic helps create a polished tone without overwhelming the page.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting traditional book typography with a touch of handwritten elegance. Its energetic italic movement reads refined rather than flashy, lending a warm, cultivated character suited to formal and editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable text serif italic that brings calligraphic liveliness to long-form typography. Its consistent contrast and measured detailing aim to balance elegance with clarity, providing a dependable italic companion for editorial and book use.
Capitals are steady and dignified with subtle curvature in the serifs, while the lowercase shows more expressive entry/exit strokes and occasional ball-like finishing touches. Numerals follow the same italic slant and contrast, pairing well with text rather than behaving like rigid lining display figures.
