This typeface is a bracketed slab serif with sturdy, slightly tapered stems and softly curved joins into the serifs. The italic has a gentle rightward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm rather than a rigid mechanical construction. Serifs read broad and supportive, with rounded/bracketed transitions that keep edges from feeling harsh; several letters show subtle swelling and curling terminals (notably in the lowercase), contributing to an inked, text-friendly texture. Counters are open and proportions feel generously set, with clear differentiation across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Well-suited for editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a strong italic is needed for emphasis. It can also support headlines, pull quotes, and packaging or identity work that benefits from a classic slab-serif voice with a bit of motion and personality.
The overall tone is bookish and editorial, combining authority with an approachable warmth. Its italic voice feels expressive and traditional, suggesting craftsmanship and narrative energy more than corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable slab-serif structure while giving the italic a more human, written quality. It balances firmness and readability with expressive terminals and bracketed detailing to keep long-form text engaging.
The sample text shows a robust paragraph color with noticeable, characteristic italic shapes (single-storey-style movements in lowercase forms and lively entry/exit strokes). Numerals appear sturdy and readable, matching the serifed texture and maintaining a consistent weight presence alongside letters.
