A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a rightward slant throughout. Serifs read as tapered and lightly bracketed, often resolving into wedge-like terminals that reinforce a calligraphic stroke logic. Capitals are compact and slightly narrow with crisp entry/exit strokes, while the lowercase shows a shorter x-height and lively, variable sidebearings that create a gently uneven, handwritten rhythm. Curves exhibit diagonal stress, and many letters finish with sharpened, flicked terminals; numerals follow the same italic logic with slender joins and strong contrast.
This font is well suited to editorial applications where an expressive italic voice is needed—magazine headlines, book or chapter titling, and pull quotes. It can also work for formal pieces like invitations, certificates, or brand collateral that benefits from a classic serif italic presence. For longer reading, it’s best used at comfortable sizes where the hairlines and sharp terminals remain clear.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, with a literary, slightly old-world flavor. Its energetic italic movement and sharp terminals add drama and elegance, suggesting formality without feeling mechanical. The texture reads expressive and human, suited to sophisticated, editorial-forward typography.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic stroke feel—high contrast, tapered serifs, and energetic terminals—aimed at elegant emphasis and display-oriented typography rather than purely utilitarian text setting.
In text, the strong contrast and tight x-height create a bright page color with noticeable sparkle, especially around sharp joins and tapered endings. The slanted, somewhat variable spacing gives headlines and short passages a dynamic cadence; at smaller sizes the fine hairlines may become more delicate compared to the heavier stems.
