This typeface is an italic serif with compact proportions and a steady, moderately contrasted stroke. Serifs are small and bracketed, with tapered entry and exit strokes that give the forms a lightly calligraphic texture. The italic angle is consistent across capitals and lowercase, producing a rhythmic forward motion; curves are smooth and slightly oval, while joins remain crisp. Counters are relatively tight and the overall fit reads economical, with narrow letterforms and controlled spacing that keeps lines cohesive in text.
It suits editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, citations, or secondary passages, and it can also serve as a primary text face for compact, elegant setting. The narrow build and even rhythm make it practical for dense columns, while the crisp serifs and smooth italics work well in literary titles and pull quotes.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone with a refined, cultivated feel. Its italic liveliness adds elegance and emphasis without becoming decorative, suggesting editorial seriousness and a traditional typographic voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional italic serif with a disciplined, text-first construction—balancing traditional proportions and bracketed serifs with enough calligraphic taper to keep long passages lively and readable.
Capitals present a stately, conventional silhouette with restrained detailing, while the lowercase shows more cursive influence in terminals and diagonals. Numerals follow the same italic logic, matching the text color and maintaining legibility at display sizes.
