A very slender italic slab serif with crisp, squared terminals that read as unbracketed slabs. Strokes stay relatively even with only slight modulation, creating a clean rhythm while the italic angle adds forward motion. Proportions are fairly open with ample counters and moderate spacing, and many forms show gently calligraphic shaping—particularly in curved strokes and entry/exit terminals—without becoming decorative. Numerals are similarly light and elegant, with simple, readable silhouettes and restrained detailing.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography where an italic slab serif can provide emphasis with a refined, classical feel. It also works nicely for pull quotes, headings, and brand identities that want an understated, literary tone while retaining crisp, structured terminals.
The overall tone feels literary and quietly sophisticated, combining old-style warmth with a tidy, contemporary sharpness from the square slabs. Its lightness and italic stance create a poised, elegant voice that suggests cultured editorial contexts rather than loud display.
Likely designed to blend the clarity and structure of slab serifs with the elegance of a light italic, offering an expressive yet controlled voice for reading and editorial settings. The aim appears to be a distinctive italic texture that remains clean, legible, and formally consistent.
Curves in letters like C, G, S, and O remain smooth and round, while the slab serifs add a subtle structural “rail” at key terminals. The italic construction is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, giving text a cohesive, gently flowing texture that stays crisp rather than swashy.
