A slanted serif with flowing, calligraphic construction and tapered strokes that widen into flared, wedge-like terminals. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with a lively rhythm created by angled stress and slightly variable stroke endings across the set. Capitals feel stately and open, while lowercase shows traditional italic forms with single-storey shapes and gently cupped entry/exit strokes. Numerals appear oldstyle, with ascenders/descenders and a more text-oriented cadence than lining figures.
Well-suited for editorial settings such as book text, pull quotes, and magazine features where an italic voice is needed with authority and polish. It can also serve in refined branding, packaging, and invitations, especially where a classic, literary tone is desirable.
The overall tone is cultured and literary, balancing elegance with energetic movement. Its italic slant and flared terminals give it a humanist warmth that reads as traditional and premium without feeling rigid.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional, text-friendly italic with expressive, flared finishing strokes—an italic that can carry emphasis in long-form reading while still feeling crafted and distinctive in display use.
Spacing appears moderately generous in the text sample, helping the angled forms stay legible at reading sizes. Curves and joins are smooth and consistent, and the design leans toward classic book-italic conventions rather than a highly decorative script.
