A high-contrast serif with a pronounced italic slant and calligraphic construction. Strokes show clear diagonal stress with tapered joins and bracketed serifs that end in sharp, slightly flared terminals. The rhythm is lively and varied, with compact counters and a relatively short x-height that emphasizes tall ascenders and expressive capitals. Numerals appear text-oriented, with oldstyle figures that sit on and below the baseline, reinforcing a traditional, bookish texture.
Well-suited to long-form editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine features where an italic serif voice is desired. It also works for formal invitations, cultural branding, and pull quotes or subheads that benefit from a refined, traditional texture.
The overall tone is cultivated and literary, combining formality with a handwritten warmth. Its crisp contrast and energetic italic movement give it a refined, classical presence suited to editorial and cultural settings rather than utilitarian UI work.
Designed to deliver a conventional text-serif reading experience with added expressiveness from a true italic structure and strong contrast. The proportions and modulation suggest an emphasis on elegance and typographic color for print-like composition.
Uppercase forms read stately and slightly wide, while lowercase letters exhibit more modulation and softer entry/exit strokes, creating a noticeable hierarchy between caps and text. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, helping long passages keep a coherent rightward flow.
