A very light italic slab serif with unbracketed, square-ended serifs and a crisp, clean drawing style. Strokes are slender and even, with restrained contrast and a smooth, consistent italic slant that gives the line a forward cadence. The capitals feel wide and airy with generous internal space, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm and clear, open counters. Numerals are similarly light and elegant, with simple forms and subtly flattened, slab-like terminals that keep the texture coherent.
Works well for editorial settings where a delicate italic voice is needed—book and magazine typography, introductory matter, captions, and pull quotes. It also suits understated branding or invitation-style materials where an elegant, traditional tone is desired without heavy contrast.
The overall tone is quiet and literary—more refined than rugged—suggesting careful editorial typography rather than loud display. The italic angle and thin strokes add a sense of elegance and motion, giving text a poised, classic voice.
Likely designed to provide a light, readable italic companion with crisp slab-serif structure—combining the stability of squared serifs with a fluid, editorial slant for sophisticated text setting.
Serifs read as small but decisive: square, minimally ornamented, and consistently applied across caps, lowercase, and figures. The italic construction stays relatively upright and disciplined, preserving clarity while still delivering a noticeable cursive flow in running text.
