A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered terminals and bracketed serifs that feel finely cut rather than heavy. The strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with slender hairlines and crisp joins that keep the texture bright on the page. Proportions are traditional and slightly narrow in feel, with a steady rhythm in lowercase and clear, open counters. The italic construction is calligraphic: letters lean consistently, with flowing entry/exit strokes and lively shapes in characters like a, e, f, g, and y; capitals remain dignified and structured, with elegant curves and a crisp, classical Q.
Well-suited to long-form reading and editorial typography such as books, magazines, essays, and cultured branding copy where an elegant italic voice is needed. It also works effectively for quotations, captions, and emphasis within a serif text setting, especially at comfortable text sizes where the fine hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a refined, editorial presence that suggests tradition and authority. Its contrast and italic energy add a touch of sophistication and ceremony, reading as polished rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic with a classical, calligraphy-informed skeleton, prioritizing refined contrast, clear rhythm, and an elegant reading texture for editorial and book typography.
Numerals follow the same contrasty, italicized logic, appearing elegant and slightly stylized, suitable for inline use with text. In the sample paragraph, the face maintains a smooth line flow and a lively word-shape, while the thin hairlines make it feel best suited to contexts where printing or rendering can preserve fine detail.
