A very light italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed rectangular serifs and a gently calligraphic construction. Strokes are slender and fairly even, with smooth curves and tapered joins that keep the texture airy. The italic angle is consistent across capitals and lowercase, and the letterforms show open apertures and compact, controlled counters. The lowercase features single-storey forms (notably a and g) and delicate terminals, while the numerals read as oldstyle figures with varied heights and elegant curves.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book jackets, and interior display moments like pull quotes and section openers. It can also support premium branding and invitations where a light, refined italic voice is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels bookish and editorial—graceful, composed, and slightly formal without becoming ornate. Its lightness and steady slanted rhythm suggest sophistication suited to cultured, literary settings.
The design appears intended to blend the authority of slab serifs with a lighter, more literary italic voice—prioritizing elegant rhythm, compact detail, and a polished page texture over heavy, industrial presence.
Wide, rounded bowls (C, O, Q) contrast with sharper, chiseled serif endings, producing a clean but characterful rhythm in text. The italic forms maintain clarity through generous spacing and restrained detailing, keeping long lines readable while still conveying an expressive slant.
