A slanted serif with a calligraphic, pen-driven construction and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes show a clear thick–thin modulation with smooth joins and slightly tapered terminals, producing a fluid rhythm across words. Capitals are narrow and elegant with prominent angled entry/exit strokes, while lowercase forms are lively and somewhat cursive in texture, with open bowls and a softly drawn, humanist feel. Numerals follow the same italicized motion, mixing straight and curved strokes with understated, classical proportions.
Well suited to editorial and long-form typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or a continuous elegant tone. It can also serve refined invitations, cultural programs, and branding that benefits from a classic, literary character.
The overall tone is bookish and cultivated, evoking traditional printing and literary typography rather than a modernist or technical voice. Its slant and stroke modulation add warmth and motion, giving text a graceful, expressive cadence that still reads as formal.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic backbone—balancing tradition and clarity while providing a graceful, expressive texture for text-heavy settings.
Distinctive italic features include a single-storey “a,” looped “g,” and a long, descending “f,” all contributing to a flowing word shape. The italic capitals remain disciplined and legible, keeping the style suitable for sustained reading rather than purely decorative display.
