A slanted serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and moderately modulated strokes, showing a clear diagonal stress that reads as calligraphy-informed rather than purely mechanical. Curves are smooth and well-controlled, with pointed joins and tapered terminals that keep the texture lively in text. Proportions feel traditional, with a steady cap height and a balanced lowercase that maintains a clear, even rhythm; the numerals match the text tone with similarly tapered shapes and old-style style cues in their flow.
It fits well in editorial typography—books, magazines, essays, and long-form reading—especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, titles, or pull quotes. It can also support formal branding and stationery where a classic, refined impression is desired.
The overall tone is polished and bookish, projecting a sense of tradition and authority. Its italic slant adds a cultured, editorial voice—more elegant than energetic—suited to formal or literary settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable text serif with a distinctly italic personality—prioritizing traditional proportions, clear word shapes, and a cultivated tone suitable for continuous reading and formal composition.
In the sample text, the font maintains a cohesive, continuous color at larger paragraph sizes, with enough contrast to feel sophisticated without becoming delicate. The slant and serif shaping create a gentle forward motion, making it especially effective for emphasis and quoted material.
