A delicate italic serif with crisp, unbracketed slab-like terminals and a very fine, even stroke weight. The letterforms lean consistently with a smooth, flowing rhythm, combining sharp entry/exit strokes with gently rounded bowls. Capitals are relatively narrow and poised, while the lowercase shows a restrained calligraphic character with simple, open counters and modest ascenders/descenders. Numerals follow the same light, clean construction, keeping a calm, consistent texture in running text.
This style is well suited to editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and elegant short-form print such as invitations or announcements. It can also work for premium packaging or branding where a refined italic voice is needed, especially at moderate to larger sizes where the very fine strokes can shine.
The overall tone feels cultured and literary—quietly elegant rather than showy. Its fine strokes and disciplined slanted forms convey formality and sophistication, suitable for editorial or classical styling where a light touch is desired.
The design appears intended to provide a sophisticated italic companion with a crisp slab-serif edge—combining a classical reading rhythm with sharply finished terminals for a distinctive, polished voice.
Unbracketed slab terminals and pointed joins give the face a crisp, etched quality, while the italic construction maintains readability through clear letter differentiation and open interior spaces. The sample text shows a bright, airy page color, with the slant providing movement without becoming cursive.
