A softly italic serif with slab-like, rounded serifs and gently bracketed joins. Strokes stay fairly even, with subtle modulation that reads more as writing influence than high-contrast display. The letterforms have open counters and a relaxed rhythm, with moderate proportions and slightly tapered terminals that keep the texture smooth in text. Numerals follow the same slanted, oldstyle sensibility, with rounded curves and a consistent, flowing color.
Well-suited to long-form reading and editorial layouts where an italic voice is prominent—book interiors, magazine features, pull quotes, and refined brand storytelling. It can also work for invitations and packaging that benefit from a classic, slightly nostalgic cadence without looking overly formal.
The overall tone feels literary and traditional, like classic book typography with a friendly softness. Its slant and rounded serif treatment add warmth and approachability while still reading as polished and editorial.
Likely designed to provide a readable italic with a traditional serif foundation, combining slab-like sturdiness with rounded, approachable detailing. The goal appears to be a smooth text texture and a bookish tone that remains distinctive in both paragraphs and display settings.
The italic angle is steady and cohesive across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving paragraphs a continuous forward motion. Rounded corners and softened slab serifs reduce harshness, which helps the face feel comfortable at reading sizes while remaining distinctive in headlines.
