A high-contrast italic serif with crisp hairlines and weighty stressed strokes, producing a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, often resolving into fine points, and many joins taper smoothly into terminals. Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly condensed in posture, while lowercase shows pronounced italic construction with single-storey a and g, angled stems, and energetic entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same contrast and slanted axis, with curving, old-style-like shaping and delicate finishing strokes that emphasize an editorial texture.
This font is well suited for editorial typography where italic is used for emphasis—book text, magazine features, pull quotes, and refined captions. It can also serve as a display italic for invitations, cultural branding, and packaging where a classic, high-contrast serif feel is desired.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting classic book typography and elegant correspondence. Its pronounced italic motion and sharp finishing details give it a dramatic, cultivated voice suited to emphasis and prestige-driven settings.
The design appears intended as a classic, high-contrast italic companion with strong calligraphic influence, balancing traditional serif structure with expressive slant and tapered terminals for sophisticated emphasis in text and display contexts.
The contrast and fine hairlines create a bright shimmer across lines of text, especially in mixed-case setting. Some letters show generous curves and sweeping diagonals (notably in capitals and descending forms), which adds personality while keeping a conventional serif foundation.
