A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline finishing. The forms are narrow-to-moderate in footprint with smooth, continuous curves, tapered strokes, and finely cut, mostly unbracketed serifs that end in sharp points. Bowls and counters are relatively open, and the italic construction shows a steady rightward slant with lively entry/exit strokes and occasional teardrop terminals. Numerals and capitals keep a poised, classical rhythm, while the lowercase maintains an even, text-friendly cadence without looking heavy.
Well-suited to magazine typography, pull quotes, headlines, and refined branding where elegance and contrast are desirable. It can also work for book covers or section openings, especially when set with generous spacing and high-quality output that preserves the hairline details.
The overall tone is polished and sophisticated, leaning toward an editorial and fashion-forward voice. Its airy contrast and sharp details feel premium and expressive, suggesting careful, cultured typography rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic serif for sophisticated reading and display contexts, combining a traditional serif foundation with a graceful, calligraphic slant and premium finishing.
The italic is consistently drawn across capitals, lowercase, and figures, with noticeable stroke tapering that adds sparkle at larger sizes. Fine details—particularly in serifs and terminals—give it a precise, high-end look that benefits from clean reproduction.
