This italic serif shows fluid, calligraphic construction with gently tapered strokes and distinct, wedge-like serif endings that flare from the stems. Curves have an oblique stress, and terminals often finish in sharp, angled cuts rather than blunt horizontals, giving the forms a crisp, chiseled edge. Proportions feel balanced and text-ready: counters are open, joins are smooth, and the rhythm is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The overall texture is lively without becoming spiky, with moderate modulation that keeps both small sizes and display settings visually stable.
Well suited for editorial typography—magazines, books, essays, and long-form reading—where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, citations, or pull quotes. It can also support elegant branding and packaging when a classic, text-derived personality is desired, especially in logotypes or short headlines.
The tone is traditional and literary, with a refined warmth typical of book italics and editorial typography. Its slanted, brush-informed energy adds emphasis and motion, while the serif detailing keeps it grounded and authoritative rather than casual.
The design appears intended to provide a robust, readable italic with a traditional serif vocabulary, combining calligraphic motion with crisp, flared finishing to produce a distinctive yet versatile texture in text.
Capitals read stately and slightly formal, while the lowercase has a more handwritten inflection, especially in the angled terminals and tapered arms. Numerals follow the same italic flow and modulation, maintaining a cohesive color in mixed text.
