A high-contrast italic serif with sharp hairlines and fuller main strokes, showing a clear diagonal stress and lively, slightly calligraphic modulation. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered terminals and crisp joins that keep counters open despite the slant. The capitals feel stately and slightly wide in presence, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with rounded, gently flowing shapes and a pronounced italic angle. Numerals follow the same contrast and slanted construction, with graceful curves and thin entry/exit strokes.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, intros, and refined long-form reading. It also fits formal materials such as invitations, programs, and luxury-leaning branding, where high contrast and classic serif detailing reinforce a premium tone.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a classical, editorial confidence. Its bright contrast and italic movement communicate sophistication and a sense of tradition, leaning more toward cultured elegance than casual friendliness.
Designed to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with heightened elegance, balancing classical proportions with enough contrast and slant to make emphasis feel deliberate and distinguished. The construction suggests an intent to perform in continuous text while also offering a poised, polished look for highlighted passages.
The italic is assertive rather than subtle, making the slant and stroke modulation a defining feature at both display and text sizes. Curved letters and diagonals show careful tapering, producing a polished sparkle in lines of text.
