A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a noticeably calligraphic rhythm. Strokes are hairline-fine in places, with sharp, tapered terminals and small bracketed serifs that keep forms crisp rather than heavy. Capitals are narrow and gently swashed in feel, while the lowercase shows fluid joining logic without actually connecting, plus long ascenders/descenders that add vertical grace. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, slightly slanted construction, reading more like classic book figures than geometric display digits.
Best suited to editorial typography, fashion and lifestyle branding, and refined headings where the high-contrast italic texture can breathe. It also fits invitations, pull quotes, and short passages set at comfortable sizes, especially when paired with a sturdier roman for body copy.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, with a quiet sense of tradition. Its lightness and flowing italic movement suggest sophistication and formality, while the high contrast adds a fashion/editorial polish.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, bookish italic voice with modern refinement—prioritizing grace, contrast, and expressive cursive motion over utilitarian neutrality.
The spacing appears open and measured, helping the thin hairlines stay legible at larger sizes. Several characters show distinctive italic traits—curved entry/exit strokes and tapered endings—giving text a lively, handwritten inflection while remaining clearly typographic.
