A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a steady rightward slant. Serifs are bracketed and crisp, with tapered entry/exit strokes that suggest a broad-nib or pointed-pen influence. Uppercase forms feel formal and slightly narrow, with sharp joins and clean, sculpted curves; the italic construction is evident in the angled stems and the flowing diagonals. Lowercase shows more movement and varied rhythm, with single-storey shapes where expected and distinctive, gently curved descenders; terminals often finish in small teardrops or soft flicks that add texture without becoming decorative.
Well-suited for editorial typography such as book and magazine settings where italics are used for emphasis, quotations, or titling. It also fits refined applications like invitations, certificates, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a classic, cultured italic voice.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classical book typography and editorial refinement. Its lively italic color and calligraphic stress lend it a sense of sophistication and ceremony, suitable for expressive emphasis rather than purely neutral setting.
The design appears intended as a conventional text companion italic: elegant, readable at text sizes, and expressive enough to signal emphasis while maintaining a traditional serif structure and disciplined proportions.
In text, the spacing and slanted forms create a consistent, forward rhythm, with clear differentiation between similar characters (notably the rounded figures and the looped descenders). Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic and read as formal, print-oriented figures.
