This is an italic serif with gently tapered strokes and clearly bracketed, triangular serifs. The letterforms show a rightward slant and a calligraphic construction, with moderate thick–thin modulation and angled stress, especially visible in the round capitals and figures. Lowercase shapes are compact and lively, with a single‑storey “a,” a looped descender on “g,” and a curved, flowing “f,” creating a rhythmic, handwritten texture while remaining firmly within a text‑serif tradition. Spacing is moderately open and the overall color stays even across words and lines, supporting continuous reading.
Well suited to book and editorial typography where an italic is needed for emphasis, quotations, captions, and section openers. It can also perform nicely in refined branding, invitations, and formal documents when a traditional italic serif tone is desired.
The tone feels classical and literary, evoking book typography, editorial tradition, and formal correspondence. Its italic motion adds elegance and emphasis without becoming flamboyant, giving it a poised, cultivated voice suited to refined text settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable italic companion for text, balancing calligraphic movement with disciplined serif structure. Its goal seems to be providing a classic, authoritative italic voice that maintains comfortable rhythm and consistency in continuous setting.
Capitals carry a restrained, old‑style energy with softened terminals and modest ornament, while the numerals follow the same italic, calligraphic logic for consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric content. The italic is expressive enough for emphasis and display sizes, yet controlled enough to remain credible in longer passages.
