A high-contrast italic serif with crisp, tapered entry and exit strokes and finely bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a pronounced rightward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm, with thin hairlines set against fuller main strokes. Curves are smooth and slightly swelling, terminals often ending in sharp points or delicate teardrops, and the overall texture reads clean and bright at display sizes. Proportions feel traditional and balanced, with modest extenders and clear, open interior counters for an italic face.
Works well for editorial typography such as book and magazine text, especially for italics in running copy, pull quotes, and emphasis. It also suits formal communication—programs, invitations, and refined branding—where an elegant italic voice is desired.
The font conveys a polished, bookish sophistication—more poetic than utilitarian—suggesting tradition, refinement, and a sense of ceremony. Its energetic italic movement adds warmth and expressiveness without becoming flamboyant.
Likely intended as a conventional, literature-oriented italic serif that balances readability with a graceful, calligraphic sparkle. The design prioritizes a classic text tradition while adding enough sharpness and contrast to stand out in headings and highlighted passages.
Capitals have a stately presence with tapered serifs and controlled contrast, while lowercase forms maintain a steady, flowing cadence suited to continuous reading. Numerals echo the same sharp hairlines and elegant stress, giving dates and folios a classic, editorial feel.
