A sharply inclined serif italic with crisp, tapered terminals and pronounced stroke modulation. Stems and diagonals resolve into delicate wedge-like serifs that feel subtly flared, while curves show a smooth, pen-driven transition from thick to hairline. Capitals are relatively narrow and open, with long, sweeping entry/exit strokes in letters like A, Q, and R; the lowercase follows with compact bowls, lively joins, and a slightly restless rhythm typical of true italics. Numerals echo the same contrast and taper, with elegant curves and fine finishing strokes.
Well suited to editorial typography—magazine features, book interiors, and pull quotes—where an expressive italic can carry tone as well as content. It also fits premium branding and formal materials like invitations or programs, especially at medium to large sizes where its fine details and tapered serifs can be appreciated.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, with a distinctly editorial feel. It reads as expressive rather than neutral—more suited to conveying sophistication and nuance than strict utilitarian clarity. The italic energy adds a sense of motion and refinement, suggesting luxury, tradition, and careful craft.
The design appears intended to deliver a classical, calligraphy-informed italic with high refinement, pairing lively movement with a disciplined, serifed structure. Its tapered, flared endings and strong contrast aim to create an upscale, literary texture that feels at home in sophisticated reading environments.
Hairlines become very fine in places (notably in cross-strokes and curved terminals), which heightens delicacy and gives the face a bright, sparkling texture in longer text. The slanted, calligraphic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, classical voice.
