A slanted serif with fluid, calligraphic construction and moderate stroke modulation. The serifs are small and bracketed, with tapered terminals and a gently written feel rather than rigid geometry. Proportions are slightly varied across glyphs, and counters stay open, giving the design a readable, text-oriented rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same italic momentum, with smooth curves and controlled contrast that remains comfortable at paragraph sizes.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, and headings. It can also serve in magazine typography, invitations, and other formal communications that benefit from a traditional, polished serif italic.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting traditional book typography and editorial refinement. Its italic energy reads as expressive but controlled, lending a cultured, slightly romantic character rather than a sharp or technical one.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, highly readable serif italic with a distinctly written cadence—balancing classical proportions with enough movement and modulation to feel elegant in continuous text.
The italic angle is consistent and prominent, with clear entry/exit strokes and softly finished terminals that keep the texture lively. Round letters show smooth, continuous curvature, while diagonals and joins maintain an even, steady color that supports extended reading.
