A high-contrast italic serif with slender hairlines and weight concentrated on the main stems, producing a crisp, bright page color. The forms lean consistently with smooth, calligraphic curves and tapered terminals, while serifs are fine and bracketed rather than blunt. Proportions feel moderately compact with sharp joins and clear counters; diagonals and arcs (notably in V/W/Y and C/G/O) are clean and controlled. Figures follow the same italic, contrasty logic, with elegant curves and thin horizontals that match the text rhythm.
Well suited for editorial settings such as magazines, book typography, and cultured brand statements where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, headlines, pull quotes, or refined display lines. It also fits formal print pieces like invitations and programs, particularly when a classic, high-contrast look is desired.
The overall tone is polished and literary, balancing sophistication with readability. Its italic energy adds motion and emphasis, evoking traditional publishing, formal correspondence, and classic editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic, high-contrast finish, offering a refined companion for emphasis while maintaining a disciplined, traditional structure.
Stroke modulation is pronounced, so very thin details are a visible part of the character—especially in tight curves and cross-strokes—giving the design a delicate, upscale finish. The italic construction appears true-drawn rather than mechanically slanted, with lively entry/exit strokes and a cohesive rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
