A slender italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a gently calligraphic axis. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with tapered terminals and crisp joins that keep counters open despite the delicacy of the hairlines. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with flowing entry/exit strokes, narrow apertures, and a rhythmic, forward-leaning texture that reads cleanly in continuous text.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It also works effectively in magazine features, refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal stationery where a classic, high-contrast italic can add sophistication.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, suggesting traditional book typography and cultured editorial styling. Its sharp hairlines and graceful curves feel polished and formal, lending a sense of sophistication without becoming overly ornamental.
Designed to provide a traditional italic companion with clear calligraphic logic and a calm, readable rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on elegance and typographic hierarchy—delivering strong contrast and graceful motion while maintaining conventional proportions for comfortable text use.
Capitals have a restrained, classical presence with modest flourish, while the lowercase shows more movement in letters like a, f, g, y, and z. Numerals echo the same italic stress and delicate finishing, giving them a refined, slightly old-world character well suited to text settings.
