This is an italic serif with a moderate slant and clear calligraphic influence. Strokes show noticeable, controlled modulation, with tapered terminals and bracketed serifs that feel sharpened rather than blunt. The letterforms are relatively open, with smooth curves and a forward-moving rhythm; counters in forms like o, e, and p stay generous, supporting readability. Proportions lean slightly narrow in places with energetic diagonals (notably in v/w/x), and the overall texture is even without looking rigid or mechanical.
This font is well suited for editorial typography where italics are used for emphasis, quotations, captions, or introductory text. It can also serve in refined subheads and pull quotes, or as the italic companion in book and long-form reading environments where a steady, classical texture is desirable.
The face reads as classic and cultivated, with a bookish, editorial tone. Its italic motion adds a sense of elegance and narrative emphasis rather than flamboyance, making it feel traditional, articulate, and confident.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional, highly readable italic with a measured degree of calligraphic character—enough to feel expressive in emphasis, while staying disciplined for continuous text.
Capital forms maintain a restrained, traditional construction while still showing italic dynamism in their diagonals and entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same italic, serifed logic with consistent modulation, blending smoothly into running text.
