A delicate italic serif with pronounced stroke contrast and hairline finishing. The letterforms show a calligraphic construction with a consistent rightward slant, tapered terminals, and smoothly bracketed serifs that stay crisp even at thin points. Proportions are relatively narrow and vertically oriented, with generous counters and a measured rhythm that keeps text open despite the light weight. Capitals are poised and sharp, while the lowercase features flowing joins and occasional swashed-like curves in letters such as g, j, and y; numerals follow the same refined contrast and italic movement.
Well suited to editorial and book work where a refined italic is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, or headings. It can also serve formal invitations, cultural branding, and packaging accents when used at sizes large enough to preserve its hairline detail and contrast.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, suggesting traditional book typography and formal editorial settings. Its lightness and high contrast lend a sense of sophistication and restraint, with a graceful, slightly dramatic italic energy suited to emphasis and display in restrained contexts.
The design appears intended as a classic, high-contrast italic companion for conventional serif typography, prioritizing grace, readability in larger text, and a traditional calligraphic voice over robustness at very small sizes or harsh production conditions.
In the sample text, the thin hairlines and fine serifs create a luminous, airy texture, especially at larger sizes. Curves are smooth and controlled rather than flamboyant, and the italic angle reads steady and consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
