A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced calligraphic slant and crisp, sharply tapered terminals. Strokes transition from hairline thins to sturdy stems, and many serifs read as wedge-like or finely bracketed rather than blunt. The forms show a lively, slightly variable rhythm—curves swell and narrow with a pen-like logic—while maintaining consistent proportions and a controlled baseline. Uppercase letters are stately and open, and the lowercase features a single-storey a and g, narrow joins, and angled entry/exit strokes that reinforce forward motion.
Well-suited to long-form reading contexts such as book interiors, literary magazines, and editorial layouts, especially for italic setting, quotations, or emphasis within a serif text system. It can also serve effectively in refined titles and subtitles where a classic, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone feels traditional and cultivated, with an editorial elegance associated with book typography and classical publishing. Its italic energy adds warmth and emphasis, reading as expressive without becoming ornamental or playful.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly legible italic serif with a classic publishing feel, balancing formal structure with pen-informed movement. Its contrast and angled terminals aim to deliver elegant emphasis while staying within a traditional text-serif vocabulary.
The numerals and capitals share the same contrast and italic stress, giving headings and emphasized passages a cohesive voice. Delicate hairlines and tight interior joins suggest it will look best with adequate size and print-like rendering where the fine details can remain clear.
