This typeface is an italic serif with gently flared, bracketed stroke endings and a moderate thick–thin relationship. Strokes show a rightward slant with smooth, calligraphic modulation, and curves are clean and continuous rather than angular. Capitals are wide and open with restrained entry/exit shaping, while lowercase forms keep a flowing cursive structure, including a single-storey “a” and “g” and a long, lively “f”. Numerals are oldstyle-leaning in feel, with varying widths and subtle curvature that matches the text rhythm.
It fits well for continuous reading in books, magazines, and essays where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or narrative tone. It also works effectively in pull quotes, subheads, and tasteful branding—especially where a classic, cultivated feel is desired without excessive contrast.
The overall tone is refined and traditional, with a literary, editorial voice. Its italic energy feels expressive but controlled—more bookish elegance than flashy display—suited to conveying sophistication and gentle emphasis.
The design appears intended to provide a readable, classical italic with restrained calligraphic character and flared terminals that add warmth and tradition. It aims for a balanced text rhythm—expressive enough to feel literary, yet steady enough for extended setting.
Spacing appears comfortably open in text, helping the italic forms breathe and maintaining clarity in longer passages. The design relies on subtle flare and taper rather than sharp, high-contrast hairlines, giving it a softer, more humanist presence on the page.
