A slanted serif with an oldstyle foundation, showing gently bracketed serifs, tapered stroke endings, and a smooth, calligraphic modulation that reads clearly at text sizes. Curves are open and softly drawn, with rounded terminals on many lowercase forms and a steady, even rhythm across words. Capitals feel slightly narrower and elegantly proportioned, while the italic structure is emphasized through flowing joins and angled entry/exit strokes rather than sharp, aggressive cuts.
Well-suited to longform reading environments such as books, magazines, essays, and reports where an italic serif is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It can also serve as a refined typographic voice for invitations, cultural programs, or brand copy that benefits from a traditional, literary tone.
The overall tone is literary and composed, with a traditional, bookish sophistication. Its italic voice feels expressive without becoming ornamental, lending a polished, editorial character that suggests craft and restraint more than display flair.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable italic companion with an oldstyle serif sensibility—prioritizing smooth texture, comfortable word shapes, and restrained elegance for continuous text settings.
Numerals are classic and text-friendly in feel, keeping consistent color with the letters and avoiding overly geometric construction. The punctuation and spacing in the sample text support continuous reading, and the slant is consistent enough to maintain a stable baseline and paragraph texture.
