A slanted serif with moderate stroke contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper into the stems. The italic construction shows evident calligraphic influence: diagonals are energetic, curves are smoothly tensioned, and terminals often finish with a slight flare or teardrop-like shape. Proportions feel traditionally text-oriented, with open counters and a steady rhythm that keeps word shapes clear while preserving a lively, slightly springy texture. Numerals follow the same italic logic, with gently curved forms and consistent serif treatment.
It suits book interiors, magazines, and other editorial contexts where an italic serif is needed for emphasis, quotations, or expressive headings. The clear counters and controlled contrast make it appropriate for long-form reading, while the lively slant gives pull quotes and short display lines added presence.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with an editorial polish that reads as confident rather than ornamental. Its italic slant and calligraphic detailing add warmth and movement, suggesting traditional print craft and a cultured, bookish voice.
This design appears intended as a conventional, text-first italic serif that balances readability with a traditional, calligraphic character. It aims to deliver an expressive yet disciplined voice for publishing and editorial typography, providing emphasis and tone without sacrificing clarity.
The font maintains consistent serif logic across capitals, lowercase, and figures, helping long passages feel cohesive. The italic angle is noticeable without becoming dramatic, and the moderate contrast supports clarity at text sizes while still giving headlines a refined snap.
