A very delicate slanted serif with crisp, square-ended slab serifs and a consistently fine monoline stroke. The letterforms are narrow-to-moderate in proportion with a gentle rightward lean and a lively, handwritten rhythm, especially in the lowercase where strokes often taper into small hooks and loops. Capitals feel structured and classical with flat terminals, while the lowercase introduces more cursive construction (notably in a, g, j, y) and occasional entry/exit flicks that create an elegant, slightly informal texture. Figures follow the same light, linear approach with simple curves and understated terminals.
Best suited to refined applications where a light, elegant texture is desired: editorial headlines, book or poetry covers, invitations, short pull quotes, and boutique branding. It will also work for brief passages where its slanted, handwritten rhythm can be appreciated without relying on heavy stroke weight for presence.
The overall tone is quiet and cultivated—suggesting editorial elegance, old-world correspondence, and a literary sensibility. Its fine strokes and slanted posture lend it a graceful, intimate feel rather than a loud, display-driven personality.
Likely designed to blend the authority and structure of slab-serif capitals with a more personal, cursive-leaning lowercase, producing an italic style that feels both traditional and expressive. The intention appears to be an elegant, high-touch typographic voice that remains restrained through consistently thin strokes and clean, square terminals.
At text sizes the thin, even strokes can read as airy and precise, while the more looped lowercase shapes add a distinctive signature-like character. The mix of crisp slab terminals and cursive detailing creates a hybrid voice that feels both formal and personal.
