A delicate italic serif with a noticeably calligraphic slant and tapered strokes. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a gently modulated stroke contrast that reads as drawn rather than mechanical. Uppercase forms feel classical and slightly narrow in impression, while the lowercase shows flowing entry/exit strokes, long ascenders, and open bowls that keep text from closing up. Curves exhibit a mild diagonal stress, and terminals tend toward sharp, slightly hooked or teardrop finishes, giving the overall rhythm an airy, continuous line.
Well suited to editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, or quoted material. It can also serve in book interiors, magazine features, and refined branding contexts where a quiet, classical italic is preferred over a bold statement.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish elegance with a restrained, formal tone. Its light, fluent italic movement suggests refinement and discretion rather than display bravura, making it feel suited to cultured, editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a readable, conventional text italic with a calligraphic underpinning—aiming for graceful texture, clear word shapes, and a cultured tone that integrates smoothly into serif text layouts.
Figures appear slender and unobtrusive, matching the text color of the letters rather than asserting themselves. The overall spacing and shapes prioritize smooth line flow, with distinctive italic forms (notably in letters like a, f, g, and y) that add personality while remaining conventional enough for extended reading.
