A very slender, italic serif with a wide stance and an overall airy color on the page. Strokes are high-precision and smooth, with a noticeable contrast between thin hairlines and slightly firmer stems, and terminals that stay crisp rather than rounded. Serifs read as small, flat slabs that meet the strokes cleanly, giving the design a controlled, engineered finish despite the cursive slant. Round letters are generously open, joins stay tight and delicate, and the rhythm across text is calm and even.
It suits editorial headlines, pull quotes, book and magazine typography, and other contexts where an italic voice is meant to lead rather than merely emphasize. The delicate weight and crisp details also work well for invitations, luxury branding, and packaging when set at comfortable sizes with ample spacing.
The font feels refined and literary, pairing a classical italic voice with a light, contemporary brightness. Its combination of delicate strokes and crisp slab-like details creates a poised, editorial tone—more boutique and cultured than loud or playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a graceful italic with a modernized slab-serif edge—combining classic proportions and calligraphic movement with sharper, more architectural serif finishing for a distinctive, polished texture.
Counters remain large and clear in both upper- and lowercase, and the italic angle is consistent across the alphabet and figures. Numerals follow the same hairline logic, with elegant curves and thin horizontals that emphasize the font’s light, high-end texture in display sizes.
