This typeface is a flared serif with an oblique, calligraphic construction and a smooth, low-contrast stroke profile. Stems gently broaden toward terminals, creating softened, wedge-like serifs and subtly bracketed joins rather than sharp, abrupt endings. The design leans wide with open counters and a steady, readable rhythm; curves are generous and slightly elliptical, and many terminals finish with small, angled cuts that reinforce the slanted motion. Overall spacing appears comfortable and even, giving text a calm texture while preserving distinct letterforms in both cases.
It performs well for long-form editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine features where an italic voice needs to remain readable and consistent across paragraphs. The wide proportions and flared terminals also make it effective for refined display settings—pull quotes, cultural branding, and packaging—especially when a classic serif impression with a handcrafted edge is desired.
The overall tone is bookish and cultivated, with a traditional, slightly romantic italic voice. It feels suited to thoughtful, narrative reading—more humane than austere—while still projecting polish and authority. The flared endings add a gentle, crafted character that reads as classic rather than trendy.
The design appears intended to merge the readability and familiarity of a traditional serif with the livelier gesture of an italic, using flared stroke endings to add warmth and flow. Its proportions and steady texture suggest a focus on sustained reading while keeping enough personality for highlighted editorial moments.
Uppercase forms carry a dignified presence with broad proportions, while lowercase maintains clear differentiation at text sizes (notably the two-storey-style shapes and compact joins). Figures follow the same oblique, flared logic, giving numerals a cohesive, editorial feel in running text. The sample text shows consistent slant and stable word shapes, producing an even paragraph color without appearing overly mechanical.
