A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The forms are narrow-leaning and fluid, with long, tapered entry/exit strokes and a consistent rightward slant that gives lines a smooth, forward rhythm. Uppercase shapes feel spacious and poised, while the lowercase shows compact counters and sharpened terminals; the overall texture stays light and open, with clean joins and a distinctly drawn, engraved-like finish.
Well suited to editorial typography—magazines, book interiors, and cultured brand communications—where an elegant italic voice is needed. It can also serve effectively in invitations, pull quotes, and display lines, especially at moderate-to-large sizes where the fine details and contrast remain clear.
The tone is polished and literary, suggesting fashion, editorial refinement, and classical taste. Its lightness and sharp contrast read as sophisticated and formal rather than utilitarian, with an expressive italic motion that adds a hint of drama.
The design appears intended to provide a refined italic companion for classic reading and display settings, emphasizing contrast, sharp detailing, and graceful movement. Its structure prioritizes elegance and typographic sophistication in composed text and titles.
Figures and capitals carry elegant, slightly calligraphic curves, and the italic construction is evident even in straight stems, which taper into fine serifs. In continuous text the face creates a bright, high-contrast color with clear word shapes, favoring grace and nuance over ruggedness.
