A slanted serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a crisp, tapered finish. The letterforms show bracketed serifs, narrow joins, and gently modulated curves that create a lively diagonal rhythm. Counters are relatively open for the style, while ascenders and descenders feel slightly elongated, reinforcing an elevated, bookish texture. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with delicate hairlines and clear, classical proportions.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazines, book typography, and essays where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or a refined tone. It can also work effectively in invitations, cultural branding, and display-size headings when you want a classic, formal impression.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a cultivated elegance that reads as traditional rather than flashy. Its strong diagonal motion and refined detailing give it a poised, formal voice suited to considered, editorial typography.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, readable serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic stroke model—balancing traditional proportions with crisp contrast for a sophisticated page color.
In text, the high contrast and fine hairlines create a bright, shimmering line, with clear word shapes and a distinctly italic cadence. The capitals carry a stately presence without becoming overly ornate, while the lowercase maintains a consistent slant and smooth reading flow.
