A delicate serif italic with crisp, tapered terminals and a steady, measured rhythm. Strokes are slender and clean, with gently modulated thick–thin behavior that stays restrained and consistent across the alphabet. The italic angle is moderate and smooth, with open counters and careful spacing that keeps the texture airy; ascenders feel tall and graceful, while curves and joins remain controlled and uncluttered.
Well suited to book and magazine typography, especially for italic passages, pull quotes, and refined headings that benefit from a light touch. It can also serve brand collateral and cultural applications—publishing imprints, galleries, invitations, and menus—where a classic, understated serif italic supports a premium impression.
This typeface conveys a refined, literary tone with a calm, cultured elegance. The italic motion adds a sense of fluency and quiet sophistication, suggesting editorial polish rather than overt display.
The design appears intended for comfortable, continuous reading where an italic voice is needed—emphasis, quotations, or a more lyrical typographic tone—without becoming decorative. Its lightness and disciplined detailing prioritize a smooth typographic color and a composed, traditional feel.
Uppercase forms read stately and spacious, while the lowercase shows a lively, handwritten-derived italic structure with clear entry/exit strokes and unobtrusive serifs. Numerals appear slender and refined, matching the overall light color and maintaining an elegant, traditional cadence in text.
