A slanted serif with tapered, calligraphic strokes and clearly bracketed serifs. The forms show moderate stroke modulation with an oblique stress, giving bowls and curves a gently dynamic rhythm rather than a rigid vertical axis. Uppercase letters are relatively narrow and poised, while lowercase shapes are lively and slightly variable in width, with flowing joins and softly curved terminals. Numerals follow the same italicized, traditional pattern, with smooth curves and modest contrast that stays consistent across the set.
This font is well suited to long-form editorial settings such as books, magazines, and academic or literary layouts where an italic voice is needed. It also works well for pull quotes, captions, and formal correspondence where a classic serif italic can add emphasis without breaking the page’s typographic continuity.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, conveying refinement and cultivated restraint. Its italic posture and calligraphic modulation add a sense of movement and elegance, suited to classical, editorial moods rather than loud display effects.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic with a warm, oldstyle-derived rhythm—prioritizing readable, continuous texture while retaining a distinctly calligraphic flavor for emphasis and elegant typography.
Spacing appears balanced for continuous reading, with a smooth text color in the sample paragraph. The italic angle feels steady across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, and the serif treatment stays consistent, reinforcing a cohesive, conventional text-serif character.
