A slanted serif with bracketed serifs and a smooth, moderately contrasted stroke. Curves show a gentle diagonal stress and the joins feel slightly calligraphic, giving the outlines a supple, bookish rhythm rather than a rigid geometric one. Uppercase forms are proportioned and restrained, while the lowercase uses compact, slightly tapered strokes with teardrop-like terminals and a lively italic flow. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and descenders, aligning naturally with running text.
Well suited to long-form reading environments such as books, magazines, and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or narrative texture. It also fits titles, pull quotes, and formal communications that benefit from a classic serif tone with a graceful slant.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, with a quiet elegance that reads as established and trustworthy. Its italic energy adds warmth and motion without becoming flamboyant, making it feel refined and editorial.
Likely designed as a conventional text serif italic that balances readability with a restrained, classical character. The aim appears to be a dependable typographic voice for editorial and book contexts, providing a clear but expressive italic texture for continuous text and emphasis.
The design maintains a consistent slant and spacing across the alphabet, with clear differentiation between similar forms and a cohesive serif treatment. The italic construction is evident in letters like a, f, g, and y, which contribute to a fluent texture suited to continuous reading.
