A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and delicate hairlines. Serifs are small and bracketed, with crisp, slightly flared terminals that keep the forms sharp without becoming ornamental. Curves are smoothly drawn and open, while stems stay clean and relatively narrow, producing a lively, high-contrast rhythm. The lowercase shows a traditional, readable construction with a moderate x-height, and the numerals appear oldstyle, aligning well with running text.
This face is well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and magazines where contrast and italic rhythm can add refinement without sacrificing legibility. It also works effectively for pull quotes, intros, and branded copy in cultural or luxury contexts, and for formal stationery where a graceful, traditional serif presence is desired.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with an editorial sophistication typical of book and magazine typography. Its italic posture and fine detailing give it a cultured, expressive voice suited to nuanced, formal messaging rather than blunt utility.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with an expressive italic character, aiming to combine classical proportions with crisp, high-contrast detailing. It prioritizes a smooth reading texture and a refined typographic color suitable for editorial and literary settings.
The italic angle is steady and consistent across cases, helping long lines flow. Pointed joins and tapered strokes add snap in letters like v, w, x, and y, while rounded counters in a, e, and o preserve clarity. The oldstyle figures contribute to an integrated texture in paragraphs and captions where numbers should blend with lowercase.
