A serif italic with a sturdy, even-weight build and softly rounded, bracketed serifs. Strokes are broad and low-contrast, with gently sheared forms and curved joins that give letters a slightly calligraphic, inked feel. Counters are relatively compact and the curves are full, producing a dense, robust text color. Terminals tend to finish with small wedges or teardrop-like shapes, and the overall rhythm is smooth rather than sharp or geometric.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book interiors, and essay-style layouts where an italic is needed for emphasis, citations, or subheads. The sturdy strokes also make it effective for pull quotes and refined branding where a classic serif voice is desired.
The tone is traditional and literary, with an assured, old-style warmth that reads as established and trustworthy. Its italic slant adds motion and emphasis without becoming flashy, supporting a refined, editorial voice.
Likely designed as a dependable text italic that prioritizes continuous reading rhythm and a strong, even typographic color. The soft bracketing, rounded joins, and restrained detailing suggest an intention to feel traditional and comfortable while remaining assertive on the page.
Uppercase forms appear stately and slightly condensed in presence, while lowercase shows pronounced cursive structure (notably in letters like a, f, g, and y) that reinforces an italic reading pattern. Numerals match the texty, robust construction and sit comfortably alongside capitals, maintaining consistent weight and a cohesive page color.
