This typeface is an italic serif with a calligraphic, old-style construction and moderate stroke modulation. Serifs are bracketed and gently tapered, with subtly flared terminals that reinforce a handwritten rhythm. The forms lean consistently and show a slightly varied, organic texture across the line, with open counters and rounded joins that keep paragraphs airy. Numerals follow the same italic impulse, with smooth curves and understated contrast that stays even in longer text.
It suits long-form reading such as book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where an italic with strong readability is needed. The expressive slant and graceful capitals also make it effective for pull quotes, titles, and refined printed materials like programs or invitations, especially when paired with a more restrained roman companion.
The overall tone feels literary and cultured, combining traditional bookish manners with a lively, human touch. Its slanted, pen-informed details give it an expressive voice without becoming ornamental, suggesting elegance and confidence rather than formality alone.
The design appears intended to deliver a classical italic voice with clear text performance, leveraging calligraphic modulation and bracketed serifs to create warmth and continuity across words. It aims to feel traditional and trustworthy while retaining enough movement and individuality to stand out in headlines and emphasis.
Uppercase shapes read steady and dignified, while the lowercase carries more motion through angled entry/exit strokes and softly curved terminals. The italic ‘f’ and ‘g’ show distinctive, flowing silhouettes that add character, and the ‘Q’ has a pronounced, sweeping tail that stands out in display settings.
