A delicate italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and smooth, flowing construction. Strokes are slender with clear contrast between thick and thin, and terminals often taper into fine points, giving a crisp, pen-like finish. Serifs are small and gently bracketed, and the overall rhythm is continuous and slightly cursive even in the capitals. Proportions feel balanced and traditional, with rounded forms (O, Q) kept open and even, and a consistent, measured spacing that supports text settings.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or section-openers. It also fits formal materials such as invitations, certificates, and elegant packaging, especially when paired with a sturdy roman companion for hierarchy and contrast.
The font conveys a refined, literary tone—graceful and cultured rather than loud. Its airy color and calligraphic cues suggest formality and polish, with a subtle vintage sensibility appropriate for classic editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that brings a graceful, calligraphy-informed texture to paragraphs while remaining controlled and readable. Its restrained detailing and consistent rhythm aim to provide elegance and emphasis without overt decoration.
Capitals show understated swash-like movement through their entry/exit strokes without becoming ornamental. Numerals are similarly italic and old-style in feel, blending seamlessly with running text rather than standing apart as rigid, tabular figures.
