A moderately contrasted serif italic with pronounced, bracketed serifs and a steady rightward slant. Strokes show a calligraphic impulse with diagonal stress and tapered joins, producing crisp entry/exit strokes and occasional teardrop-like terminals. Proportions feel generous and open, with relatively wide capitals and a comfortable, readable lowercase that maintains clear counters and a consistent italic rhythm. The figures follow the same italicized, old-style-leaning flow, integrating smoothly with text rather than standing rigidly upright.
Well suited for editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and other long-form reading where an italic voice is needed for emphasis. It also works effectively in pull quotes, subheads, and refined invitations or announcements that benefit from a classic italic serif presence.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, with a polished, editorial sensibility. Its slanted, slightly spirited forms add momentum and warmth while remaining disciplined enough for serious reading and formal communication.
Designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with enough calligraphic character to feel lively in text, while preserving the structure and discipline expected of traditional publishing faces.
The italic construction is expressive without becoming swashy: curves are full and smooth, and the serifs help keep long words visually anchored. Spacing appears even and text color is consistent, supporting extended passages at typical reading sizes.
