A delicate italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms show an oblique, calligraphic construction with diagonal stress, sharp wedge-like serifs, and gently bracketed joins. Proportions feel open and slightly narrow, with long ascenders/descenders and airy counters that keep the texture light. Capitals are restrained and classical, while the lowercase has fluid entry/exit strokes and a lively rhythm; numerals follow the same high-contrast, angled logic.
Well suited to magazine typography, cultural/editorial layouts, book covers, and elegant branding where a refined italic voice is desired. It also works nicely for pull quotes, section openers, and invitations where high-contrast detail can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a distinctly editorial flavor. Its crisp hairlines and poised slant evoke luxury and formality, reading as literary and fashion-forward rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to provide a sophisticated italic companion for conventional serif typography, emphasizing elegance, motion, and contrast. It aims for a classic, high-end reading impression with enough calligraphic character to stand out in display and editorial roles.
At text sizes the thin connecting strokes and fine serifs create a shimmering texture, while at larger sizes the sharp terminals and sculpted curves become more expressive. The italic angle is consistent and contributes to forward motion without feeling overly cursive.
