This italic serif features pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline joins, with softly bracketed serifs and tapered stroke endings. Letterforms lean decisively with a smooth, calligraphic flow, balancing crisp edges with gently rounded curves. Proportions feel traditional and text-oriented, with moderate x-height and clear ascender/descender presence; numerals and capitals share the same slanted, high-contrast rhythm for a cohesive page color.
Well-suited to editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, or pull quotes. It can also serve in refined headlines and subheads, as well as book and magazine settings where a traditional, high-contrast italic complements a roman companion.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, suggesting literary and editorial traditions. Its energetic slant and sharp contrast add elegance and a slightly dramatic, headline-friendly presence without becoming ornate.
The font appears intended as a classic, high-contrast italic for conventional text typography—delivering an elegant, readable emphasis style with a polished, editorial character.
The design maintains a consistent italic construction across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a unified texture in mixed-case settings. Stroke modulation is strong enough to read as refined and premium, while the forms remain conventional and familiar.
