A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered serifs and a distinctly calligraphic construction. The strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with diagonal stress and smooth, flowing joins, giving the letters a lively, written rhythm rather than rigid geometry. Uppercase forms are elegant and slightly narrow in feel, while the lowercase shows compact proportions, angled terminals, and a single-storey italic “a,” contributing to an oldstyle texture. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curving forms and crisp entry/exit strokes that keep the line energetic.
This font is well-suited for italic roles in books and long-form editorial layouts, where it can provide clear emphasis and a classical tone. It also performs well for pull quotes, magazine headings, and other display moments that benefit from a refined, calligraphic italic presence.
The overall tone is refined and literary, evoking traditional book typography and classic editorial styling. Its crisp contrast and italic movement communicate sophistication and formality, with a touch of dramatic flair suited to expressive emphasis rather than purely utilitarian text.
The design appears intended as a traditional, high-contrast italic for conventional serif typography—aimed at delivering elegant emphasis and a classic reading texture while maintaining a polished, editorial character.
In paragraph settings the strong contrast and angled details create a sparkling texture, especially at larger sizes where the hairlines and terminals can be appreciated. The italic slant is consistent and the serif treatment remains delicate, which favors careful spacing and generous leading in continuous reading.
