A very fine, hairline italic with gently tapered strokes and soft, rounded terminals. The letterforms show a steady rightward slant and a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, with understated bracketed serifs that feel more like subtle entry/exit strokes than hard slabs. Curves are broad and open (notably in C, G, O, and e), while verticals remain slender, producing an overall light, graceful color on the page. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same delicate construction, with looped forms and restrained stroke endings that keep the texture consistent in continuous text.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, and book-jacket titling where an elegant italic voice is desired. It also fits refined branding, packaging, and invitation work, especially when set with generous tracking or in larger sizes to showcase its delicate strokework.
The tone is sophisticated and quiet, conveying refinement rather than emphasis. Its airy stroke weight and flowing italic movement suggest a literary, cultured sensibility with a gentle, personable warmth.
The design appears intended to offer a graceful, modern-leaning italic with subtle serif cues and a handwritten inflection, optimized for an elevated, literary tone in display and prominent text applications.
In the text sample, the font maintains an even, shimmering rhythm at larger sizes, with distinctive italic forms (single-storey a and g, long ascenders, and softly cupped serifs) adding character without becoming overly ornamental. Spacing appears moderately open for such a light style, helping counters stay clear and preserving legibility in display and short reading settings.
