A slender italic slab serif with square, unbracketed serifs and a gently calligraphic rhythm. Strokes read as even and clean, with a consistent slant and slightly varied letter widths that create an airy, flowing texture in text. Curves are smooth and open, while many joins and terminals end in crisp, flat slabs, giving the design a structured backbone despite its italic movement. The lowercase appears compact relative to the capitals, and ascenders/descenders feel pronounced, helping the face stay articulate at larger sizes.
This font suits editorial settings such as book interiors, essays, and pull quotes where an italic voice is needed without losing structure. It also works well for refined branding, packaging, and invitation-style typography, especially at display and subhead sizes where the crisp slab serifs and elegant slant can be appreciated.
The overall tone is literary and quietly formal, blending old-style warmth with a more engineered, slab-serif stability. It suggests editorial polish and a classic, slightly vintage voice rather than a blunt or industrial slab.
The design appears intended to merge an italic, handwriting-informed cadence with the firmness and clarity of slab serifs. It aims for a readable, polished texture that feels traditional and cultivated while remaining crisp and typographically disciplined.
In the specimen text, spacing feels moderately open and the italic angle is steady, producing an elegant diagonal flow across lines. Numerals are simple and readable, matching the same crisp slab terminals and maintaining a calm, consistent color in running text.
