A very slender italic serif with crisp, flat slab-like terminals and a smooth, continuous cursive slant. Strokes are consistently thin with minimal contrast, giving the letterforms a hairline, high-fashion feel while retaining clear structure. Proportions are moderately open with gently tapered joins, rounded bowls, and long, lightly extended ascenders/descenders that add vertical elegance. The uppercase shows restrained, classical construction, while the lowercase uses a more cursive rhythm with single-storey forms and flowing entry/exit strokes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and short passages where an elegant italic voice is desired. It also fits invitations, boutique branding, and premium packaging where delicacy and refinement are more important than rugged small-size utility. For longer reading, it will benefit from comfortable sizes and ample line spacing to preserve its light texture.
The overall tone is refined and quiet, leaning toward editorial sophistication rather than loud display. Its thin strokes and italic movement suggest elegance, formality, and a literary sensibility, with a slightly romantic, handwritten nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver a graceful, fashion-forward italic with slab-like finishing—combining crisp terminals with a soft, flowing rhythm. It aims for a polished, high-end impression while keeping letterforms recognizable and evenly paced in text settings.
Spacing reads generous in the samples, helping the thin strokes stay legible and preventing the texture from becoming gray. Numerals follow the same delicate, slanted construction and feel suited to incidental use rather than dense data.
