This typeface is an italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a crisp, slightly calligraphic construction. Strokes taper into sharp terminals and bracketed serifs, producing a lively diagonal rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. Proportions feel generous and open, with rounded forms and counters that stay clear even as the contrast increases in joins and curves. Numerals follow the same italic slant and contrast, reading cleanly with a classic, text-oriented texture.
It suits editorial typography where a sophisticated italic is needed—magazine features, book work, pull quotes, and introductory blurbs. It can also serve well in branding or packaging that benefits from a classic, upscale serif tone, particularly for short passages and emphasized text.
The overall tone is refined and literary, conveying a classic bookish authority with a touch of flourish. Its energetic italic movement suggests elegance and emphasis rather than neutrality, giving text a cultivated, editorial voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable italic with elevated contrast and a graceful, classical slant—aimed at producing an elegant texture in running text while remaining expressive enough for display-like emphasis.
The italic angle is consistent and the letterforms maintain a coherent cadence across the alphabet, creating a smooth, continuous flow in paragraphs. The design balances sharp detail at terminals with sturdy main stems, yielding a polished, traditional appearance.
