A very light italic slab serif with long, crisp unbracketed slabs and a noticeably calligraphic forward slant. Strokes stay fine and even, with sharp terminals and flat, square-ended serifs that read as delicate “bars” rather than heavy feet. Capitals are narrow-to-moderate with sweeping diagonals and open counters, while the lowercase shows lively rhythm through extended ascenders/descenders and occasional looped forms (notably in g and y). Figures are similarly light and angled, with simple, open shapes that align to the same italic cadence.
Best suited to editorial display work such as magazine headings, pull quotes, and refined book-cover typography where its italic motion and crisp slabs can be appreciated. It can also serve formal invitations or brand wordmarks that want a delicate, classical feel, particularly at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is poised and literary—more about finesse than force. Its italic energy and hairline construction give it a fashion/editorial elegance, with a slightly classical, bookish sophistication.
The design appears intended to merge the structure of slab serifs with an elegant italic voice, prioritizing a graceful reading rhythm and a polished, high-end look over ruggedness or utilitarian text density.
The forward-leaning forms and long entry/exit strokes create strong directional flow, especially in text. At small sizes the extremely thin strokes and fine serifs may rely on generous spacing and clean reproduction to maintain clarity.
