A serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic build: strokes show gentle modulation and end in flared, tapered terminals rather than blunt cuts. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a soft, inked feel that gives curves and joins a slightly organic rhythm. Proportions are moderately compact with round, open bowls and smooth transitions, while the italic slant and angled stress keep the texture lively in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals and capitals follow the same flared, slightly sharpened finishing, maintaining a consistent, traditional color on the page.
Well-suited to editorial typography—books, long-form articles, and magazine layouts—where an expressive italic texture is desirable. It also works effectively for literary titles, pull quotes, and refined branding or packaging that benefits from a classic, warm serif voice.
The tone reads refined and bookish, with a calm elegance that feels rooted in historical printing and pen-driven forms. Its slanted stance and flared endings add warmth and motion, giving text a cultivated, slightly dramatic voice without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif readability with an italic, pen-influenced character, using flared terminals and moderate modulation to create a lively yet disciplined text texture.
The italic is clearly integral to the design rather than a simple oblique: many letters show re-drawn structures and asymmetric details that enhance flow in running text. Stroke endings frequently sharpen into subtle points, which can add crispness at display sizes while still holding together in paragraphs.
