A slender italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, calligraphic stroke endings. Serifs are fine and generally bracketed, with sharp joins and a lively diagonal rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. Forms are compact and upright in proportion, with small counters and a clean, crisp color that stays consistent in text. Numerals follow the same italic, high-modulation logic, reading as graceful and slightly varied in width rather than rigidly uniform.
Well suited for editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and other reading contexts where an elegant italic voice is needed for emphasis or refined body text. It can also work effectively in invitations, formal announcements, and premium packaging where a graceful, classical tone is desired.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a poised, old-world sophistication. Its bright contrast and flowing italic movement suggest formality and care, lending text a refined, editorial character rather than a casual or utilitarian feel.
The design appears intended as a traditional text serif italic that balances readability with expressive, calligraphic flair. Its narrow, high-modulation structure and crisp serifs aim to provide a sophisticated companion style for formal composition and typographic hierarchy.
In longer passages the tight proportions and sharp contrast create a sparkling texture that rewards generous size and comfortable line spacing. The italic slant is steady and controlled, while the delicate terminals and thin hairlines emphasize elegance over ruggedness.
