A high-contrast italic serif with smooth, calligraphic modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a steady rightward slant, narrow entry strokes, and tapered terminals that keep counters open despite the contrast. Capitals have a classical, slightly calligraphic construction, while the lowercase features fluid joins and a gently varying rhythm, creating a lively, text-friendly texture. Numerals follow the same modulated stroke logic, with clear differentiation and softened finishing strokes.
Works well for editorial and long-form reading where an elegant italic voice is needed, such as magazines, book typography, and refined website typography. It also suits formal applications like invitations, cultural branding, and headings that benefit from a classic, sophisticated tone.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a refined, old-world elegance typical of bookish and editorial typography. Its italic motion adds energy and sophistication without becoming flamboyant, suggesting a measured, cultured voice suited to formal communication.
Likely intended as a conventional text-serif italic that delivers classic, high-contrast refinement and readable rhythm, providing a confident typographic voice for both emphasis in text and polished display use.
The design balances sharpness and softness: thin hairlines stay clean, while curves and joins are rounded enough to feel continuous in setting. The italic angle and stroke contrast create a dynamic line while maintaining an even color in paragraphs.
