This typeface is a slanted serif with sturdy, slightly tapered strokes and clearly bracketed wedge-like serifs that read as traditional rather than slabby. Curves show an oblique stress and a subtly calligraphic modulation, giving bowls and arches a lively rhythm without becoming overly delicate. The lowercase is moderately open and rounded, with a single-storey italic-style “a” and “g,” and descenders that feel generous, while capitals maintain a dignified, slightly condensed presence. Numerals are robust and old-style in spirit, with noticeable curvature and serifed entry/exit strokes that keep them consistent with the text color.
It suits editorial typography where an italic voice is needed—book and magazine settings, pull quotes, and subheads—while its strong presence also works for classic branding, invitations, and posters that benefit from a traditional serif tone with extra energy.
The overall tone is classic and literary, combining formality with a warm, editorial feel. Its slant and calligraphic cues add motion and voice, making it feel expressive and human rather than purely mechanical.
The design appears aimed at delivering a conventional text-serif foundation infused with a distinctly italic, calligraphic cadence, balancing strong color with readable forms for extended passages and emphatic settings.
Counters remain fairly generous at display sizes, while the heavier joins and angled terminals create a dark, confident texture. The italic angle is pronounced enough to signal emphasis clearly, and the serif shaping helps hold lines together in continuous text.
