A slanted serif text face with flowing, calligraphic construction and gently bracketed wedge serifs. Strokes show a moderate thick–thin relationship with a subtly diagonal stress, and the curves are open and smoothly modeled for continuous reading. Proportions lean slightly narrow with a lively, variable rhythm across letters, and the lowercase maintains a balanced, readable x-height relative to the ascenders and descenders. Numerals appear in an oldstyle style, mixing ascenders and descenders to blend with lowercase text.
It suits long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where an italic serif is needed for emphasis or a more literary voice. It can also work well for refined announcements and invitations, as well as headings or pull quotes when a classic, formal tone is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, with an elegant, slightly handwritten slant that feels poised rather than showy. It conveys a quiet authority suitable for editorial and literary settings, adding warmth without losing formality.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable italic serif for text composition, combining classical serif structure with a calligraphic slant to provide emphasis and elegance while maintaining a stable paragraph color.
Capitals are restrained and classical, while the italic angle and tapered terminals give the text a consistent forward motion. Round letters keep generous internal space, and the joins and serifs avoid bluntness, supporting a smooth, continuous texture in paragraphs.
