This is a delicate italic slab serif with hairline strokes and crisp, unbracketed serifs that read as small rectangular terminals. The overall construction is narrow-to-moderate in body with generous sidebearings, giving lines a spacious, elegant rhythm. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with restrained modulation and a consistent rightward slant across both capitals and lowercase. The lowercase forms are open and readable, with long, fine ascenders and descenders, and the numerals follow the same light, poised drawing with clear, simple shapes.
It suits editorial settings where a sophisticated italic is needed—magazine headlines, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and high-end branding applications. It can also work well for invitations and formal announcements, especially when set with generous tracking and ample leading.
The tone is refined and literary, suggesting a formal, cultivated voice rather than a utilitarian one. Its lightness and italic movement feel graceful and understated, evoking classic book typography and elegant editorial styling.
The design appears intended to provide an elegant italic voice with slab-serif structure—combining crisp terminals and a refined, airy texture for display-oriented typography. It prioritizes grace and clarity over density, aiming for a classic, cultured appearance in headlines and prominent text.
At larger sizes the thin strokes and sharp slab terminals create a crisp, engraved-like texture, while at smaller sizes the very fine weight may demand careful color management and sufficient contrast. The italic angle is steady and the serif treatment remains consistent across the alphabet, contributing to a coherent, polished page presence.
