A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp, tapering terminals. Strokes transition from hairline thins to sharper thick diagonals, with bracketed serifs and subtly calligraphic entry/exit strokes that keep forms lively. Capitals are open and gently wide with smooth curves (notably round letters like C, G, O, Q), while lowercase shows a traditional text rhythm with modest ascenders/descenders and a two-storey italic “g” alongside a single-storey “a.” Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with delicate hairlines and angled stress that reads as formal rather than geometric.
Best suited for text italics in books and long-form editorial layouts, as well as pull quotes, introductions, captions, and refined brand copy where an elegant italic voice is needed. It can also work for formal invitations and cultural or academic materials that benefit from a classic serif tone.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and upscale editorial styling. Its italic movement feels expressive and cultured without becoming flamboyant, making it suited to sophisticated, traditional settings.
The font appears designed as a conventional text serif italic with strong contrast and a graceful, calligraphy-informed slant, aiming for readability in continuous text while providing a distinctly refined, traditional personality for emphasis and display moments.
The design emphasizes clean spacing and a steady baseline while retaining the natural variation of italic forms; narrow joins and fine hairlines give it a delicate, airy color in paragraphs. The ampersand and capitals carry a slightly calligraphic sweep that pairs well with formal punctuation and title styling.
