A very delicate italic serif with thin, even strokes and crisp, square-ended slab serifs that attach cleanly to stems. The letterforms are relatively narrow with generous internal counters, giving an open, airy texture despite the light weight. Curves are smooth and restrained, and joins remain sharp rather than softly transitioned, producing a clean, engraved feel. The italic construction is consistent across capitals and lowercase, with gently tapered diagonals, modest entry/exit strokes, and a steady rhythm in running text.
Works best where a graceful, high-contrast-free italic is needed for emphasis or atmosphere—editorial decks, pull quotes, book interiors, and cultured branding. It is especially effective at larger sizes where its hairline strokes and crisp slab serifs can be appreciated, and as an elegant companion italic in sophisticated layouts.
The overall tone is elegant and composed, leaning toward editorial and bookish sophistication. Its lightness and crisp slabs add a poised, slightly historical flavor without feeling overly decorative, making it suitable for quiet, high-end typographic settings.
Likely designed to deliver a refined italic voice with slab-serif crispness, prioritizing elegance, controlled rhythm, and a lightly engraved presence in text and display settings.
In the sample text the spacing reads measured and controlled, with a refined cadence and clear word shapes. Numerals follow the same hairline logic, staying understated and consistent with the text color, while capitals remain slender and formal.
