A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and clear, calligraphic modulation. Strokes transition from firm main stems to very fine hairlines, with bracketed serifs that sharpen into tapered terminals. The uppercase maintains classical proportions with open, rounded counters and slightly flared entry/exit strokes, while the lowercase shows lively cursive shaping with ascenders that lean forward and compact, flowing joins. Figures follow the same italic rhythm, with teardrop-like terminals and strong thick–thin shifts that keep them consistent with the text style.
It suits applications where an expressive italic is expected: book and chapter titles, editorial pull quotes, magazine features, and formal invitations. It can also work for premium packaging or branding accents when set at comfortable sizes where the fine hairlines remain clear.
The font conveys a cultivated, literary tone—poised and traditional, with an editorial sophistication. Its energetic italic movement adds a sense of fluency and finesse, making it feel ceremonial rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a refined, conventionally structured serif italic that brings classical proportions together with a more calligraphic, decorative finish. It aims to provide an elegant emphasis style with enough character to stand on its own in display settings.
In continuous text, the rhythm is driven by tight hairlines and tapered curves, producing a crisp texture that reads as polished but visually active. The more decorative moments—such as the swash-like strokes on letters like Q and the flowing lowercase forms—add personality without tipping into script.
