A slanted serif with a bookish, oldstyle structure and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes show a subtle calligraphic modulation, with tapered joins and a soft, flowing rhythm rather than rigid geometry. The lowercase is compact and readable, with rounded bowls, a single-storey “g,” and a modestly tall ascender/descender presence that adds texture in running text. Capitals are balanced and slightly narrow in feel, with crisp terminals and restrained flare, while numerals follow the same angled, serifed logic for a cohesive page color.
Well-suited to long-form editorial settings such as books, essays, and magazines where a refined italic voice is needed. It also works effectively for pull quotes, introductions, captions, and elegant headings that benefit from a classic serif presence and lively slant.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking editorial and literary typography. Its italic movement adds energy and elegance without becoming decorative, giving text a gentle sense of speed and sophistication.
Designed to provide a conventional, trustworthy serif italic with a timeless reading rhythm and enough calligraphic character to feel crafted. The forms prioritize steady texture and clarity while preserving a traditional, literary personality.
Spacing appears even and calm in the paragraph sample, with clear counters and consistent diagonal stress that helps the italic hold together at larger sizes. The italic forms read as purpose-built rather than simply obliqued, with differentiated shapes and responsive curves across the alphabet.
