A slanted serif with an oldstyle foundation and a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show gentle modulation and tapered terminals, with bracketed serifs that feel lightly flared rather than blunt. The italic construction is fluid and slightly lively, with rounded bowls, softly cupped entry/exit strokes, and a consistent forward motion across words. Counters are open and the overall color stays even, giving text a smooth, continuous texture without looking rigid or mechanical.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where an elegant italic can carry emphasis without breaking texture. It also works nicely for magazine features, literary or cultural headlines, pull quotes, and refined print pieces such as programs or invitations where a classic serif voice is desired.
The tone is elegant and literary, evoking traditional book typography and editorial refinement. Its motion and subtle delicacy make it feel cultured and expressive, leaning toward a classic, slightly poetic voice rather than a stark or utilitarian one.
Designed to provide a traditional italic companion with a graceful, pen-influenced flow and a polished text color. The emphasis appears to be on readable, bookish elegance—combining classic serif structure with enough movement to feel expressive in continuous prose.
Figures share the same slanted, calligraphic logic as the letters, with curved joins and light tapering that keeps them visually integrated in running text. The shapes favor clarity through open forms and careful spacing, producing a calm reading rhythm while still retaining a handcrafted italic character.
