A traditional serif italic with moderate stroke modulation and a steady, bookish rhythm. The letters show bracketed, wedge-like serifs and smoothly tapered terminals, with a consistent rightward slant. Counters are open and rounded, curves are generously drawn, and joins are softened, giving the forms a continuous, slightly calligraphic flow. Capitals are well-proportioned and stately, while lowercase keeps a compact, readable structure with clearly differentiated shapes and crisp punctuation-like detailing on terminals.
Works well for extended reading in books and long-form editorial layouts, especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It can also support refined branding and printed materials such as programs or invitations where a classic serif italic conveys formality and taste.
The overall tone is classic and literary, leaning toward editorial polish rather than display flamboyance. Its italic character reads as confident and cultivated, with an understated elegance suited to traditional publishing aesthetics.
Designed to provide a conventional, highly legible serif italic that complements classic text typography while retaining a graceful, slightly calligraphic line. The emphasis appears to be on balanced proportions, comfortable spacing, and a dependable editorial tone rather than novelty.
The numerals and capitals maintain the same angled stress and tapered finishing, helping mixed text feel cohesive. Diagonals and arches (notably in letters like V, W, and n/m) emphasize a lively forward motion without becoming overly decorative.
