A slanted serif with full, rounded forms and gently bracketed serifs that read as softened rather than sharp. Strokes show a calligraphic influence: curves swell into heavier joins, with moderate contrast and a slightly irregular, inked rhythm. Counters are open and generous, while terminals tend toward rounded teardrops and subtle flares, giving the outlines a sturdy, tactile presence. The italics are not simply obliqued; they carry true italic construction in several letters, with a flowing lowercase and a noticeably cursive feel.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book-cover typography, and pull quotes where a distinctive italic serif can carry a paragraph with character. It also works effectively for display uses such as posters, identity wordmarks, and packaging that benefit from a traditional yet lively voice.
The overall tone is classic and approachable, with a vintage, printed-book character. Its energetic italic movement and softened edges suggest warmth and personality, leaning more literary and human than purely formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a familiar old-style reading experience while adding extra motion and personality through an expressive italic, soft bracketing, and slightly inked detailing that keeps the texture lively at larger sizes.
Capitals are broad and weighty with compact internal spaces, producing strong headline color. Lowercase forms maintain clear differentiation (notably in the looped and angled shapes), and the numerals share the same rounded, inked detailing, helping text and figures feel cohesive in running settings.
