A delicate italic serif with noticeably flared stroke endings and small, lightly bracketed serifs that read as tapered terminals rather than blunt slabs. The letterforms show a strong rightward slant, smooth curves, and a calligraphic modulation that stays restrained, keeping counters open and shapes clean. Proportions feel classical and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and flowing joins, producing a consistent, even texture in text. Numerals follow the same elegant construction, with curved strokes and fine terminals that match the overall rhythm.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazines, book typography, and literary publishing where an italic with refinement is needed for emphasis, titling, or pull quotes. It can also serve upscale branding, packaging accents, and invitations where a classical, graceful voice is desired, especially at medium to larger sizes.
The overall tone is cultured and composed, evoking bookish elegance and traditional editorial typography. Its lightness and flowing italic movement give it a graceful, slightly ceremonial character suited to elevated, tasteful communication rather than blunt utility.
Designed to deliver a traditional italic voice with a refined, flared-serif finish—prioritizing elegance, readability, and a cultured rhythm in continuous text while still offering a distinctive, calligraphic personality.
Capitals have a stately presence with gently sharpened serifs and smooth, elliptical curves, while the lowercase emphasizes continuous motion and soft entry/exit strokes. The spacing and rhythm in the sample text appear balanced, yielding an airy color that favors clarity at comfortable reading sizes.
