A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapering hairlines and fuller main strokes, showing a clear diagonal stress. Serifs are bracketed and finely finished, with pointed terminals and occasional teardrop-like details that reinforce a calligraphic construction. The italic angle is consistent and fairly pronounced, producing a flowing rhythm and open counters that keep text airy despite the contrast. Uppercase proportions feel traditional and slightly narrow in stance, while lowercase forms are compact with a moderate x-height and long, energetic ascenders and descenders.
Well-suited for book and editorial settings where an expressive italic is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, or refined running text. It also fits formal communication such as invitations and programs, and can support luxury-leaning branding or packaging when a classic, high-end tone is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, leaning toward classic editorial sophistication. Its crisp contrast and swift italic motion suggest refinement and a slightly dramatic, expressive voice rather than a purely utilitarian one.
Designed to deliver a traditional, calligraphy-informed italic for comfortable text reading while providing a polished, upscale texture on the page. The strong stroke modulation and carefully shaped terminals aim to balance elegance with clarity in longer passages.
Numerals appear similarly slanted and high-contrast, with elegant curves and delicate joins; the ‘0’ is an oval with strong stress, and figures like ‘2’ and ‘3’ show graceful, sweeping terminals. The glyph set maintains consistent modulation across letters, helping paragraphs read smoothly while still showcasing a distinctive italic character.
