A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered terminals. Strokes show a calligraphic, slightly flared finish, with fine hairlines and sharper joins that create a crisp, energetic texture. Serifs are compact and gently bracketed, while curves and diagonals maintain a consistent forward slant. The overall rhythm is tight and linear, with narrow proportions and a clean, controlled drawing that stays legible even with very light detailing.
Performs best in editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, such as magazine features, book typography, and pull quotes. It also suits formal communications like invitations and tasteful branding applications where a refined, high-contrast italic can carry the tone.
The tone is poised and literary, combining refinement with a hint of drama from the strong contrast and brisk italic movement. It reads as polished and formal, suited to sophisticated editorial or cultural contexts rather than utilitarian work.
Designed to deliver an elegant italic with calligraphic nuance and sharp contrast, prioritizing a graceful rhythm and refined detail for display and editorial emphasis. The flared stroke endings and delicate hairlines suggest an intention to feel crafted and classic while remaining clean and contemporary in execution.
Capitals are elegant and relatively open, with a graceful italic stance; numerals match the same contrast and showy, editorial flavor. In text, the font forms a bright, lively color with distinct word shapes and clear emphasis, making it well suited to highlighting and quoted passages.
