A slanted serif with bracketed, tapered serifs and a gently calligraphic stroke flow. Curves are smooth and moderately open, with rounded terminals and clear entry/exit strokes that emphasize the italic construction. Capitals feel stately and slightly narrow, while lowercase forms show lively modulation and a consistent rightward rhythm; ascenders are prominent and the overall texture stays even in continuous text.
Well-suited to long-form reading environments such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It also works for invitations or formal notes when a traditional, polished texture is desired.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone with a refined, traditional demeanor. Its italic angle and soft modulation add warmth and a sense of movement, making it feel elegant rather than rigid.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that balances readability with a graceful, humanist rhythm. It aims to provide an elegant companion style for continuous typography, offering clear letterforms and a cultured, bookish color on the page.
Numerals are oldstyle-leaning in feel with noticeable curvature and varying extents, fitting the text-centric character. The italic ‘f’, ‘j’, and ‘y’ show expressive descenders, and the ‘g’ has a distinctive looped form that adds personality without breaking consistency.
