A compact italic serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and a gently calligraphic stroke flow. The letterforms show moderate thick–thin modeling, angled stress, and subtly tapered terminals that keep counters open while maintaining a dense, text-ready color. Proportions are slightly narrow overall with varied widths across letters; ascenders are prominent and the lowercase has a straightforward, readable x-height. Curves and joins feel softened rather than razor-sharp, giving the rhythm a steady, traditional texture in continuous text.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It also fits magazine typography, essays, and academic material that benefits from a traditional serif texture and strong typographic hierarchy.
The tone is classic and editorial, projecting confidence and a familiar literary character. Its italic slant and wedge-like serifs add a sense of motion and emphasis without feeling decorative, making it feel established, serious, and slightly warm.
The design appears intended as a conventional text italic that balances firmness with a handwritten-like flow, providing emphasis that remains highly readable and typographically orthodox.
Capitals have a robust presence with squared, stable footing, while the lowercase maintains a lively cadence typical of text italics. Numerals appear sturdy and readable, matching the text color and serif treatment for consistent mixed-content setting.
