A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. Letterforms are moderately narrow with generous interior space, and the slanted axis is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Serifs are fine and gently bracketed, with tapered terminals and crisp joins that create a smooth, continuous rhythm. Curves are drawn with a restrained, calligraphic tension, while verticals remain clean and upright enough to keep the texture controlled rather than flamboyant.
Well-suited to editorial typography, magazine features, and book cover titling where a light, high-contrast italic can add elegance without overwhelming the page. It also fits luxury-oriented branding, packaging, and formal invitations, especially at larger sizes where the hairline details can be preserved. In longer passages, it works best with comfortable sizing and spacing to maintain readability.
The overall tone is elegant and cultivated, with a quiet, literary sophistication. Its light color and sharp contrast suggest a premium, editorial sensibility—more poised and stylish than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to provide a polished italic voice for conventional serif typography—prioritizing grace, contrast, and smooth reading rhythm. It aims to deliver an elevated, print-like texture suitable for refined text settings and expressive emphasis.
Capitals show generous curvature (notably in C, G, O, Q) with graceful entry and exit strokes, and the Q features a flowing tail that adds a touch of flourish. Lowercase forms maintain clarity in running text, with long, fine ascenders and subtle, tapered terminals that keep words feeling airy. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender spines and open counters that read as refined rather than robust.
