This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with a distinctly calligraphic construction: strokes taper and swell with a clear diagonal stress, and many terminals finish in sharpened, teardrop-like points. Serifs are small and sculpted, often appearing as subtle wedges or flares that broaden from the stems rather than forming blunt slabs. Curves are smooth and open, with tall ascenders, a gently slanted axis, and a rhythmic alternation of hairlines and thicker main strokes that keeps the texture lively while remaining controlled.
It suits editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and pull quotes where an italic voice is needed with strong elegance. It also works well for formal invitations, packaging, and branding applications that benefit from a classic, high-end serif impression, especially at moderate to larger sizes where the hairlines and terminals can breathe.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting a traditional, cultured voice with a touch of drama. Its sharp terminals and sweeping italic motion add sophistication and a slightly romantic, editorial feel.
The design appears intended to capture a traditional italic serif with a pen-informed, flared finishing, balancing sharp, expressive terminals with disciplined proportions for readable, polished typography.
Letterforms show consistent diagonal momentum and restrained ornament: capitals have elegant, sweeping curves (notably in C, G, Q, and S), while lowercase forms maintain clear counters and a delicate, pen-like finish. Numerals follow the same italic cadence with pronounced contrast and pointed terminals, giving figures a graceful, formal presence.
