This italic serif features sharp, hairline serifs paired with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a smooth, calligraphic stroke flow. The letterforms show a right-leaning, forward rhythm with gently bracketed serifs, tapered joins, and a generally diagonal stress in rounded shapes. Proportions feel traditional with open counters and clean, uncluttered silhouettes; capitals are stately and narrow-ish in presence, while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable texture. Numerals echo the same high-contrast construction, with elegant curves and fine entry/exit strokes.
Well suited to editorial layouts, magazine features, and book typography where an elegant italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotes, or section openers. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, invitations, and other refined print or high-resolution digital applications that benefit from high contrast and graceful motion.
The overall tone is sophisticated and high-end, evoking literary and editorial refinement with a distinct fashion sensibility. Its pronounced contrast and italic movement give it a poised, expressive character suited to polished, premium typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic companion for conventional serif typography—prioritizing elegance, emphasis, and a polished reading texture while maintaining familiar, traditional proportions.
In continuous text the spacing reads airy and the rhythm is lively due to the strong modulation and slanted axis. Fine details (thin serifs and hairlines) contribute to a delicate sparkle, suggesting best results at comfortable display sizes or well-printed text settings.
