A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are bracketed and crisp, with a distinctly calligraphic stress that gives curves a smooth, drawn quality rather than a rigid geometric feel. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent, producing lively diagonals in capitals and flowing joins in lowercase. Counters are relatively open for a display-leaning text italic, while terminals often finish in pointed or teardrop-like forms that add sparkle at larger sizes.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book typography where an italic voice is needed, and refined branding applications. It also works effectively for invitations, menus, and premium packaging where a classic, elegant italic can carry emphasis and atmosphere.
The overall tone is refined and traditional, projecting a literary, old-world elegance. Its strong slant and contrast feel expressive and polished, suggesting ceremony and editorial sophistication rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional, high-contrast italic with a calligraphic sensibility—an expressive companion for sophisticated text and display settings. Its consistent slant, crisp serifs, and bright stroke modulation aim to deliver a graceful, authoritative tone in running lines and emphasis alike.
Capitals read as stately and slightly swashed in spirit without overt flourishes, pairing well with the more energetic lowercase. Numerals appear lining and italic to match the text rhythm, with pronounced contrast that makes them feel formal and typographically prominent.
