This is a high-contrast italic serif with crisp hairlines and smoothly swelling main strokes, producing a lively diagonal rhythm. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with tapered terminals and a distinctly calligraphic entry/exit logic in many letters. Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly narrow in impression, while the lowercase shows oldstyle tendencies such as a single-storey italic “a” and “g,” a long, flowing “f,” and a gently angled stress through rounded letters. Figures are proportional-looking and draw with the same stroke modulation and curved finishing as the letters, giving numerals an editorial, text-like color rather than a geometric rigidity.
Well suited to long-form editorial and book settings where an italic with strong typographic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or commentary. It also works effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal print materials such as invitations or programs where a classic, cultivated tone is desired.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book typography and formal correspondence. Its pronounced stroke modulation and sweeping italics read as expressive and cultured, lending emphasis without feeling decorative.
The font appears designed as a conventional text serif italic that balances classical proportions with a clear calligraphic influence. Its intent seems to be providing an authoritative, elegant italic with strong contrast and graceful shaping for sophisticated reading environments.
The design maintains consistent contrast and curvature across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with a smooth, continuous stroke flow that favors readability at text sizes while still looking sharp in display settings. The italic angle is assertive but controlled, and the spacing in the sample text suggests a comfortable, even texture when set in paragraphs.
