A right-leaning serif italic with compact proportions and a gently calligraphic build. Strokes stay relatively even in thickness, with subtle modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs that often taper into wedge-like terminals. Curves are smooth and slightly pinched at joins, giving counters a refined, oldstyle feel; capitals are stately and open, while lowercase forms show energetic entry/exit strokes and a lively, handwritten rhythm. Numerals follow the same italic construction with rounded bowls and firm, angled terminals, keeping the set cohesive.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazine subheads, pull quotes, and book front matter where an italic voice is needed with a classic serif character. It can also support refined branding, packaging copy, and invitations that benefit from a formal, literary tone and a lively slanted rhythm.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, evoking book typography, classic correspondence, and editorial sophistication. Its slanted posture and sharp terminals add a touch of motion and ceremony, making it feel expressive without becoming flamboyant.
The design appears intended as a characterful serif italic that blends traditional oldstyle proportions with crisp, tapered detailing for a distinctive, print-oriented presence. It aims to deliver an expressive italic voice that remains controlled and readable while adding decorative sharpness at terminals.
Spacing reads moderately tight and the italic angle is consistent, producing a strong diagonal flow across words. Distinctive pointed terminals and slightly chiseled inner curves create sparkle at display sizes, while the steady stroke weight helps maintain clarity in continuous text.
