A slanted serif text face with sturdy, weighty strokes and gently bracketed serifs. The forms show a subtle calligraphic influence: curves are full and slightly swelling, terminals are rounded, and joins feel smooth rather than sharp. Uppercase letters are broad and stable with clear, classical proportions, while the lowercase is lively and readable, with single-storey a and g and pronounced, softly curved descenders. Numerals are similarly robust, with strong diagonals and rounded bowls that keep the texture even in continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial typography—magazines, essays, and book interiors—especially where an assertive italic voice is needed for emphasis. The strong weight and clear serifs also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and brand messaging that wants a traditional, literary character.
The overall tone is bookish and confident, evoking classic print typography with a personable, slightly old-style flavor. Its slant and generous curves add warmth and momentum, giving text an energetic, editorial feel without becoming flashy.
The design appears intended as a conventional serif with an expressive italic posture, aiming to balance classical structure with a bold, high-impact texture for reading and emphasis. Its rounded detailing and smooth transitions suggest a focus on comfortable text rhythm while maintaining strong presence.
In the sample text the rhythm is dark and emphatic, producing a dense typographic color suited to short lines and prominent settings. The italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, and the punctuation and spacing appear tuned for paragraph use rather than display-only impact.
