A high-contrast italic serif with tapered, slightly flared stroke endings and delicately bracketed terminals. The letterforms lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, combining fine hairlines with stronger main strokes and clear diagonal stress. Capitals are spacious and poised, while the lowercase shows lively joins, open apertures, and long, sweeping ascenders/descenders that create a graceful horizontal flow in text. Numerals follow the same italic modulation, with elegant curves and sharp, thin entry/exit strokes.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine features where an elegant italic voice is needed for emphasis or display. It also fits refined branding and invitation work, especially for names, short phrases, pull quotes, and headings where its high-contrast modulation can shine.
The overall tone is cultured and expressive, evoking editorial sophistication and a classical, bookish sensibility. Its slanted, finely drawn forms read as thoughtful and lyrical rather than blunt or utilitarian, lending a polished, upscale voice to headlines and display text.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic with a more sculpted, tapered finish—balancing traditional serif proportions with a slightly flared, calligraphic edge for expressive, high-end typesetting.
Spacing appears generous and even, supporting smooth word shapes in running text. The italic construction is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, with restrained ornament that stays within a traditional serif framework.
