A slanted slab serif with sturdy, square-ended serifs and a low-contrast, steady stroke weight. The letterforms show generous widths and open counters, with a calm, even rhythm and clear internal spaces. Serifs read as strong and slightly bracketed, and the italic is constructed rather than calligraphic, keeping stems and joins crisp. Numerals and capitals maintain the same broad proportions and stable baseline presence, producing a solid, readable texture in continuous text.
Well suited to editorial typography where a strong italic voice is needed—magazines, book interiors, and long-form reading—while also scaling effectively for headlines, subheads, and pull quotes. Its broad proportions and sturdy serifs can add presence to branding or packaging that wants a classic, print-forward feel.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, combining a confident, workmanlike structure with a refined, bookish slant. It feels authoritative and composed rather than flashy, with a subtle vintage flavor that suits serious or narrative content.
Likely designed as a practical slab serif italic that retains clarity and typographic firmness in continuous reading, offering a dependable, traditional texture with a distinctly emphatic slant.
In text, the wide set and robust serifs create a pronounced horizontal emphasis and a dark-but-even color. The italic angle is noticeable yet controlled, helping emphasis stand out without turning decorative.
