A slanted serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a calm, bookish texture. Strokes show moderate contrast with clearly modulated thick-to-thin transitions and tapered terminals, producing a fluid rhythm without becoming overly ornate. The capitals are proportionally traditional and slightly narrow with sharp joins and clean, sculpted curves, while the lowercase is more dynamic, with open counters, a gently looping italic “g,” and a long, lightly curved descender on “y.” Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with distinctive curves and a slightly old-style feel in their proportions.
Well-suited for long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where an italic with strong structure and moderate contrast can carry emphasis gracefully. It also works effectively for magazine features, pull quotes, and literary or cultural headlines that benefit from a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking printed literature and established editorial typography. Its italic motion adds a sense of voice and emphasis, reading as expressive yet controlled rather than flamboyant.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that prioritizes readable rhythm and familiar proportions while adding a measured calligraphic liveliness for emphasis and editorial nuance.
The italic construction is consistent across cases, with pronounced entry/exit strokes and tapered finishing details that keep word shapes active. Spacing appears balanced for continuous reading, with enough openness in the lowercase to prevent the slant and contrast from darkening the line too much.
