This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with a crisp, calligraphic construction. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with sharp hairlines, and serifs are small and bracketed, often finishing in tapered, pointed terminals. The italic angle is consistent and lively, with narrow, elongated capitals and compact lowercase forms that maintain a steady rhythm in text. Curves are smooth and slightly tensioned, and several letters display gently hooked or sweeping entry/exit strokes that reinforce the drawn, pen-like feel.
It works well for editorial typography, book or magazine settings that want a classic italic flavor, and refined display applications such as invitations, programs, and packaging or branding accents. The lively contrast and narrow proportions also suit pull quotes, headlines, and short-form emphasis where an elegant italic is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, evoking traditional book typography and formal correspondence. Its strong contrast and poised slant lend it a refined, cultivated voice suited to upscale and editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a traditional, high-contrast italic for conventional text typography, balancing readability with a distinctly calligraphic, upscale character. It prioritizes a polished page rhythm and graceful movement over blunt sturdiness, making it best for contexts that benefit from sophistication and typographic nuance.
Numerals follow the same italicized, high-contrast logic, with slender stems and delicate curves that feel cohesive alongside text. In the sample setting, the face keeps a clean texture while the sharp hairlines and tapered terminals remain visually prominent, especially at larger sizes.
