This serif italic shows a crisp, high-contrast build with fine hairlines and sharper, tapered entry/exit strokes. The italics are moderately slanted with a calligraphic rhythm, featuring bracketed serifs and frequent wedge-like terminals. Counters are open and rounded, with diagonal stress evident in bowls and curves; ascenders rise cleanly above the x-height while descenders are long and flowing. Numerals follow the same delicate contrast, with elegant curves and thin joins that emphasize a formal, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and literary publishing where an italic voice is needed for emphasis with a classic tone. It can also serve in refined branding, invitations, and display lines where its high-contrast details and graceful slant can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone is poised and literary, suggesting classic book typography and cultured editorial design. Its refined detailing and graceful italic movement feel formal and polished, with a subtly dramatic, old-world elegance.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif italic with a traditional, calligraphy-informed structure—aiming to provide an elegant, readable italic that pairs well with formal typography and long-form editorial settings.
The uppercase forms read stately and controlled, while the lowercase introduces more motion through sweeping descenders and tapered terminals. Thin strokes and tight hairlines contribute to a delicate page color, making the face feel most at home where clean rendering and ample size can preserve its fine details.
