A slanted serif with a calligraphic, pen-driven rhythm and gently tapered strokes. Serifs are small and bracketed, with smooth, rounded joins that keep the forms fluid rather than crisp. Curves show a soft, continuous modulation, and terminals often finish with subtle hooks or teardrop-like endings, giving the letters a lively, handwritten tilt while remaining clearly typographic. Overall proportions feel classical, with open counters and an even, readable texture in text.
Well suited to editorial typography, book interiors, and other long-form reading where a classic italic voice is needed. It can also serve effectively in invitations, certificates, and refined branding applications that benefit from an elegant, traditional tone.
The font conveys a cultivated, bookish elegance—traditional and slightly romantic in tone. Its italic movement and soft detailing suggest formality and craftsmanship without feeling stiff, lending a graceful, expressive voice to longer passages.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable italic serif with a distinctly calligraphic underpinning. Its goal seems to be delivering graceful emphasis and literary polish while maintaining the structure and clarity expected of a text-oriented serif.
In the sample text, the italic angle and gentle stroke shaping create a consistent diagonal flow and a smooth line-to-line color. Capitals appear poised and slightly narrow in stance, while the lowercase maintains a cohesive cursive logic that reads cleanly at text sizes.
