A slanted serif with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm and moderate stroke modulation. Serifs are finely bracketed and tapered, with gently cupped terminals that keep the color even while still feeling lively. The lowercase shows oldstyle-like proportions with soft joins and a fluid baseline flow; counters are open and rounded, and curves resolve into sharp but controlled beaks and hooks. Numerals and capitals maintain a composed, bookish structure, with crisp diagonals and slightly swept entry/exit strokes that reinforce the italic motion.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, titles, or quoted material. It also fits formal documents and literary branding that benefit from a traditional serif italic with a steady text color.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting editorial polish rather than display flamboyance. Its italic energy reads confident and cultivated, with a traditional elegance suited to formal communication. The shapes feel warm and humanistic while still maintaining a disciplined, conventional text-serifs demeanor.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif italic that balances tradition with a subtle handwritten influence. It aims to provide a dependable text companion with enough character in terminals and modulation to feel expressive in continuous reading.
The italic angle is consistent across cases, and spacing appears generous enough to preserve clarity in running text. Distinctive, slightly calligraphic details—like the hooked descenders and tapered terminals—add personality without disrupting the even texture on the page.
