This italic serif shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, tapered entry and exit strokes and finely bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and slightly compressed, with a consistent rightward slant and lively, calligraphic joins. Uppercase forms feel stately and measured, while lowercase characters show energetic italic construction with angled terminals, a single-storey a, and compact counters. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender hairlines and sculpted curves that keep the texture light and articulate in running text.
Well-suited to long-form reading contexts such as books and editorial layouts where an expressive italic is needed for emphasis, quotations, or titles. It also fits formal materials—programs, invitations, and refined branding—where a classic, high-contrast italic voice supports a premium tone.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book typography and formal correspondence. Its sharp contrasts and graceful slant add a sense of sophistication and ceremony without feeling overly ornamental.
The font appears intended as a conventional, text-friendly italic serif with elevated contrast and a traditionally informed, calligraphic structure. It aims to provide elegant emphasis and smooth reading rhythm while maintaining a crisp, refined silhouette.
Spacing and rhythm read as even and text-oriented, producing a refined, slightly airy color rather than a dense italic. The design balances delicate hairlines with sturdier stems, giving it a crisp presence at display sizes while maintaining a classic italic flow in paragraphs.
