This is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a smooth, calligraphic stroke flow. Serifs are small and mostly bracketed, with tapered entry/exit strokes that give characters a drawn, pen-like finish rather than a rigid engraved look. Curves are generous and rounded (notably in O/Q/C), while diagonals and joins stay crisp, creating a lively texture in text. The lowercase shows italic-specific forms with single-storey a and g, compact counters, and subtly varying letterfit that adds rhythmic movement across a line.
It performs well for editorial settings such as book and magazine typography, especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or lead-ins. The high contrast and expressive slant also suit headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials like invitations or programs, where a refined, traditional tone is desirable.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and editorial refinement. Its elegant contrast and italic motion lend a sense of emphasis and sophistication, suitable for content that should feel established and thoughtfully crafted.
The design appears intended to provide a classic italic companion with a strong, elegant contrast and a readable, text-oriented rhythm. It balances formal serif conventions with calligraphic movement to create emphasis without becoming overly decorative.
The numerals follow the same italic construction, with strong diagonals and clear contrast, reading confidently at display sizes. The uppercase feels stately and slightly wider in stance, while the lowercase carries more of the font’s energetic, handwritten-influenced character, producing a dynamic yet controlled paragraph color.
