A serif italic with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs, showing a calligraphic, forward-leaning construction. Strokes modulate with noticeable contrast, and curves are smooth and open, giving counters a generous, readable shape. Proportions favor a relatively tall lowercase with long ascenders and descenders, and the overall rhythm feels lively with slightly varied letter widths. The numerals appear oldstyle, integrating smoothly with lowercase text rather than standing as rigid lining figures.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or tone changes. It also works effectively for magazine features, literary branding, and refined headlines that benefit from a traditional, serif-italic texture.
The tone is polished and literary, with a classic, humanist warmth that reads as sophisticated rather than ornamental. Its italic forms add motion and emphasis, suggesting elegance and a traditional publishing sensibility.
The design appears intended as a comfortable, classical italic with a subtly flared, calligraphic finish—aiming to provide a graceful companion voice for text while maintaining clarity and a cultivated typographic color.
Capitals are restrained and dignified, pairing well with the more animated lowercase. The italic ‘f’, ‘g’, and ‘y’ have expressive descenders, and the ‘Q’ shows a distinctive tail that contributes to the font’s character without becoming overly decorative.
