A very delicate italic serif with sharp, square-ended slab terminals and consistently fine strokes. The letters lean smoothly with restrained curvature, producing an even, airy rhythm in text. Serifs read as thin horizontal caps rather than tapered wedges, and joins stay clean and unrounded, reinforcing a crisp, engineered finish. Capitals are tall and open, while the lowercase shows gently rounded bowls and narrow, simple italic forms that keep counters clear at display sizes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, book and magazine covers, and refined branding where a light italic can add sophistication. It can also work for invitations and cultural/event materials, especially when set with generous size and spacing to preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, evoking editorial sophistication and classical book typography with a lighter, more ethereal presence. Its thin construction and measured italic slant create a quiet sense of luxury and formality rather than loud emphasis.
The design appears aimed at pairing an elegant italic text voice with crisp slab serif structure, creating a distinctive blend of classical readability and modern, clean-cut terminals. Its consistent thinness and controlled slant suggest an emphasis on tasteful display typography and refined hierarchy rather than heavy body-text durability.
Numerals follow the same light, sharply terminated treatment and feel consistent in color with the letters. In the sample text, spacing and stroke economy favor display and larger text settings, where the hairline details and slab terminals remain distinct.
