A slanted calligraphic serif design with a steady, pen-like rhythm and moderately varied stroke weight. Stems and diagonals show angled stress with tapered entry/exit strokes, while many letters finish in wedge-like, slightly flared terminals that read as soft, brush-cut serifs. Curves are smooth and open, capitals are relatively tall and expressive, and the overall texture alternates between compact joins and wider, more gestural forms, giving lines a lively, variable cadence.
Well-suited to headlines and short passages where an elegant, handwritten formality is desired, such as book covers, editorial pull quotes, event stationery, and boutique branding. It can also work for subheads or captions when paired with a quieter text face, especially in contexts aiming for a classic or ceremonial feel.
The tone is formal and cultured, evoking classic handwriting used for titles, quotations, and ceremonial messaging. Its italic motion and subtle flourishes add a hint of drama and romance without becoming overly ornate, balancing readability with a distinctly handcrafted presence.
The design appears intended to translate broad-nib or brush-pen calligraphy into a consistent typographic system, preserving angled stress, tapered terminals, and a flowing italic stance. It prioritizes expressive, traditional letterforms that read confidently in display settings while still supporting extended sample text with a cohesive rhythm.
Uppercase forms lean toward display-friendly proportions with distinctive swashes and sculpted bowls, while the lowercase keeps a consistent cursive slant but remains unconnected for clarity. Numerals match the calligraphic logic, using angled strokes and tapered ends that keep them harmonious in mixed text.
