A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline terminals that stay crisp in the counters. The letterforms lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm: long entry strokes, tapered joins, and softly bracketed serifs that feel more drawn than mechanical. Proportions are relatively open and not condensed, with generous curves in round letters and a slightly lively baseline flow across the lowercase. Figures are similarly slender and high-contrast, with elegant curves and thin finishing strokes that echo the text forms.
Well suited to editorial typography where an elegant italic voice is needed—magazine features, pull quotes, headlines, and refined book typography. It can also support formal stationery and branding that benefits from a light, high-contrast, upscale character, especially at moderate to larger sizes.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, combining classic bookish manners with a fashion-editorial sheen. Its lightness and sharp contrast read as sophisticated and formal, with a gentle handwritten nuance that adds warmth without becoming casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxurious, high-contrast italic for sophisticated text settings, balancing classical serif structure with a calligraphic stroke logic. It prioritizes elegance, motion, and fine detail to create a distinctive, polished reading color in display and editorial contexts.
Uppercase forms show restrained classical construction with fine finishing strokes, while the lowercase emphasizes fluidity through narrow joins and long, tapering terminals. The italic angle is consistent, and the spacing in the sample text suggests an airy texture that prioritizes grace over darkness on the page.
