A slanted serif with a smooth, low-contrast stroke and softly flared terminals that read as tapered serifs rather than sharp wedges. The outlines show a humanist, calligraphic logic: rounded joins, generous curves, and a steady diagonal stress across bowls and rounds. Capitals are broad and calm with gently bracketed feet, while lowercase forms keep open counters and slightly varied stroke widths that give an organic rhythm. Numerals are oldstyle-leaning in feel with curved entries and exits, matching the italic movement and rounded finishing.
Well suited for editorial and long-form reading where an italic serif is needed for emphasis, introductions, or pull quotes. It also works nicely in refined branding, packaging, and cultural materials that benefit from a classic, bookish italic with an even, comfortable texture.
The overall tone is literary and cultivated, suggesting traditional print typography with a warm, personable voice. Its italic energy adds motion and emphasis without becoming overly ornate, making it feel both classical and approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional italic serif voice with modern smoothness: readable, gently expressive, and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The flared, tapered finishing and humanist shaping aim to provide warmth and elegance without relying on high contrast or decorative detailing.
The texture in text is even and readable, with clear word shapes driven by a consistent rightward slant and rounded serifs. Curved letters (C, G, O, e, c) stay open and airy, while diagonals (v, w, x, y) keep a crisp, slightly calligraphic snap that helps maintain clarity at display and text sizes.
