This is a right-leaning serif with an oldstyle, calligraphic construction and smooth, bracketed serifs. Strokes show a gently modulated contrast, with rounded joins and subtly tapered entry/exit strokes that keep the rhythm fluid in text. Proportions are moderate with a relatively compact lowercase and open counters; capitals feel traditional and slightly narrow in posture due to the italic slant. Numerals follow the same flowing, serifed treatment with softened curves and consistent stroke modulation.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where an italic text face is needed for emphasis or continuous setting. It can also serve well in refined display roles—pull quotes, headings, invitations, and packaging copy—where a classic, literary voice is desired without excessive ornament.
The overall tone reads cultivated and traditional, with a bookish elegance that feels more human and handwritten than strictly mechanical. Its slanted forms and soft terminals add a personable warmth while staying firmly on the formal, classical side.
The font appears designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with a distinctly oldstyle, calligraphy-informed texture. Its moderated contrast and bracketed serifs aim for comfort in continuous text while maintaining a polished, traditional presence.
The italic angle is noticeable without becoming steep, and the serif treatment remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping paragraphs hold together. The design favors smooth curves and gentle finishing details over sharp, high-contrast sparkle, supporting continuous reading.
