A slanted serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a lively, calligraphic modulation. Strokes show clear thick–thin patterning with tapered joins and pointed terminals that keep the texture sharp rather than soft. Proportions feel moderately narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, and the italics are expressive—curves lean forward while diagonals and entry strokes add momentum. Numerals follow the same angled rhythm, with old-style-esque silhouettes and varied widths that read as text-friendly rather than strictly tabular.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, especially for emphasis, introductions, pull quotes, and refined typography in magazines. It can also serve in tasteful branding, invitations, and cultural or academic materials where a classic italic voice adds character without sacrificing clarity.
The overall tone is literary and cultivated, combining traditional book-seriffed structure with a confident italic flourish. It suggests sophistication and motion—more expressive than a quiet workhorse italic, but still composed and readable for continuous text.
Designed to provide a classic text-serif experience with an italic that carries visible pen-like energy. The intent appears to be an elegant, readable face that brings traditional authority while adding expressive movement in running text.
Capitals present a formal, slightly calligraphic stance with sharp apexes and controlled curvature, while lowercase forms emphasize flowing joins and distinctive italic shapes (notably the single-story a and g). Spacing appears balanced for reading, producing an even, gently shimmering line when set in paragraphs.
