A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant, sharp wedge-like serifs, and tapered entry/exit strokes that evoke pen-informed modulation. Curves are smooth and slightly swelling, while terminals often finish in pointed or subtly hooked shapes, giving the rhythm a lively, flowing texture. Proportions read as classical and text-oriented, with a moderate x-height and open counters that keep the color from becoming too dark despite the contrast.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book and magazine text, and long-form passages where an italic voice is needed for emphasis. It also fits invitations, certificates, and brand materials seeking a classic, upscale feel, and works nicely in pull quotes, captions, and refined headings at moderate sizes.
This face conveys a refined, literary tone with a gentle sense of motion. Its crisp contrast and calligraphic slant feel elegant and traditional, suggesting formality without looking stiff.
The design appears intended as a traditional italic companion for extended reading, offering clear word shapes and a smooth baseline flow while adding emphasis and sophistication. Its sharp serifs and strong modulation aim to deliver a distinctly classic, editorial voice.
The numerals share the same calligraphic contrast and slant, helping mixed text maintain a consistent texture. Uppercase forms feel slightly more stately and structured, while lowercase shows more cursive energy in joins and terminals, creating a balanced, traditional italic palette.
