A slanted serif design with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, finely tapered serifs. The letterforms feel compact and controlled, with a steady baseline rhythm and relatively narrow internal spaces in many glyphs. Curves are smooth and calligraphic in behavior, while terminals and joins stay sharp, producing a clean, polished texture in paragraphs.
Well suited for editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, essays, and long-form quotations where an italic voice is needed. It also fits invitations, cultural institutions, and branding that benefits from a classic, polished serif italic. Best used at text to display sizes where its fine strokes and sharp details can remain clear.
This typeface reads as refined and literary, with an elegant, editorial tone. The italic posture and crisp contrast suggest formality and tradition rather than casual or playful use.
The design appears intended to provide a classic italic voice for continuous reading, balancing elegance with disciplined spacing and structure. Its strong contrast and tapered finishing aim to deliver a sophisticated texture that feels at home in traditional typographic settings.
Figures share the same italic rhythm as the letters, helping maintain a consistent slanted flow in mixed text. The overall spacing and slant produce a lively, forward-moving line without becoming overly decorative.
