A high-contrast italic serif with flowing, calligraphic modulation and noticeably tapered terminals. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with sharp entry strokes and occasional hooked or teardrop-like endings that add movement. The italic angle is assertive, and counters stay relatively open despite the strong thick–thin transitions. Proportions feel traditional and text-oriented, with compact, rhythmic lowercase and more formal, slightly narrow capitals; numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic with prominent curves and thin hairlines.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and long-form reading where an italic with strong rhythm is needed for emphasis. It also works effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials like invitations or premium brand communications where contrast and movement can be showcased.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and cultivated editorial styling. Its crisp hairlines and energetic italic give it a sense of sophistication and a lightly dramatic, courtly flair rather than a purely utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to provide a classical, text-seriffed italic with a distinctly calligraphic edge—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and lively cursive motion while maintaining familiar letterforms for conventional reading contexts.
Stroke contrast is most pronounced in curved forms, where hairlines become very fine; this gives the face a bright, sparkling texture at display sizes. Several lowercase forms show subtle swash-like finishing strokes (notably in letters with ascenders/descenders), reinforcing the handwritten influence while remaining firmly in a conventional serif structure.
