A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and fuller, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are bracketed and delicate, with a distinctly calligraphic flow and angled stress that gives the letterforms a lively, forward rhythm. Proportions feel slightly narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, and the overall spacing reads open and poised, helping the face stay clear at text sizes despite the fine detailing.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis without losing typographic refinement. It also fits fashion, arts, and cultural branding, as well as invitations and premium stationery where a classical, graceful serif impression is desired.
The tone is polished and literary, suggesting tradition and taste rather than utilitarian neutrality. Its slanted, pen-like movement and crisp contrast convey sophistication and a sense of cultivated formality, suitable for expressive typography that still feels grounded in classical book styles.
Designed to deliver a traditional italic serif color with pronounced contrast and a calligraphic sensibility, balancing elegance with text-like discipline. The consistent slant, bracketed serifs, and controlled proportions suggest an emphasis on sophisticated readability for editorial and book contexts.
Uppercase forms present sweeping curves and clean, controlled joins, while the lowercase shows a fluid italic construction with smooth entry/exit strokes and compact counters. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and italic cadence, keeping the set visually cohesive in running text.
