A delicate italic serif with slim, tapered strokes and a crisp, engraved-like finish. Serifs read as small, flat slabs that meet stems cleanly, giving terminals a sharp, decisive edge while keeping the overall color light and open. Curves are smooth and slightly narrow in feel, with generous sidebearings and a steady rightward slant that creates flowing rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals maintain an elegant, restrained presence, pairing thin hairlines with firmer verticals for a poised, bookish texture.
Well suited to editorial settings such as book typography, magazines, and long-form reading where an elegant italic voice is needed. It also works effectively for pull quotes, section openers, and refined invitations or announcements, especially at medium-to-large sizes where its fine strokes and crisp terminals can shine.
The tone is formal and cultivated, with a quiet sophistication that recalls classic literary typography. Its lightness and italic motion add a romantic, handwritten suggestion without becoming informal, making it feel graceful and articulate.
The design appears intended to provide a refined italic companion with a slightly sharper, slab-terminal character—balancing calligraphic motion with crisp, typographic structure. It emphasizes elegance, rhythm, and a polished page presence rather than utilitarian robustness.
In continuous text, the italic angle and airy spacing produce a smooth cadence, while the crisp slab-like terminals keep letterforms from feeling overly soft. The design favors elegance over density, so it reads best where subtle stroke detail can remain visible.
