A delicate italic serif with narrow, tapered strokes and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show an oldstyle influence: rounded bowls, a gently diagonal stress, and a fluid, written rhythm that keeps the texture light and open. Capitals are stately and slightly formal, while the lowercase features compact proportions and smooth joins; ascenders feel tall and slender, and the overall spacing reads even without becoming rigid. Numerals are similarly light and elegant, with graceful curves and fine terminals that match the text color.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, essays, and pull quotes where an elegant italic voice is desired. It can also work for refined packaging, event materials, and invitations, particularly at sizes where the thin details and crisp serifs can remain clear.
The font conveys a poised, literary tone—quietly sophisticated rather than assertive. Its light, flowing italic character suggests tradition and craftsmanship, lending a cultured, editorial feel to longer passages and display lines alike.
The design appears intended as a classic italic companion for text typography, emphasizing elegance, readability, and a traditionally serifed, bookish rhythm. Its light construction and disciplined structure aim to add emphasis and sophistication without overwhelming the page.
The italic slant is consistent across cases, and the design relies on fine hairlines and sharp finishing strokes to create definition at larger sizes. Curves and entry/exit strokes have a calligraphic quality that adds sparkle, while maintaining a restrained, conventional serif structure.
