This is a slanted text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a pronounced, calligraphic stroke modulation. Letters show tapered entry and exit strokes, compact joins, and a slightly springy baseline rhythm that keeps the texture lively rather than rigid. Capitals are gracefully proportioned with open counters and crisp terminals, while the lowercase features single-storey forms (notably the a and g) and gently angled, pen-like endings. Numerals follow the same italic construction with smooth curves and pointed terminals, maintaining consistent color in running text.
Well suited for editorial typography where an italic voice is needed: emphasis within long-form text, quotations, captions, and literary or academic layouts. It can also serve for elegant invitations, programs, and refined branding applications when a classic, text-serif italic is desired.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with an elegant, cultivated feel reminiscent of book typography and formal correspondence. Its slant and tapered serifs add motion and warmth, giving it a refined but personable character rather than a cold, purely mechanical one.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif italic with a clear, pen-informed construction—prioritizing readable rhythm, graceful proportions, and a traditional typographic voice appropriate for editorial and book settings.
In the sample text, word shapes remain clear at larger sizes, with distinct italics cues in forms like f, j, and y. The punctuation and the ampersand match the flowing, calligraphic logic, supporting continuous reading while still offering a touch of flourish in headings or quotes.
