A sharply modeled italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The forms lean with a steady, even slant and show calligraphic tapering at terminals, especially in the lowercase. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with pointed, knife-like entries that give strokes a clean start and a delicate finish. Uppercase proportions feel classical and slightly narrow, while the lowercase maintains open counters and a fluid, connected rhythm typical of text italics; the overall texture is airy and refined.
Well-suited for editorial typography where an italic voice is needed—magazine decks, pull quotes, and book titling or emphasis. It also fits luxury branding and formal printed materials such as invitations or certificates, where a refined, classical mood is desired.
The tone is polished and cultured, suggesting editorial sophistication rather than utilitarian neutrality. Its bright, high-definition contrast reads as upscale and expressive, with a quiet sense of tradition and ceremony.
The design appears intended to deliver a sophisticated italic with strong contrast and delicate detailing, prioritizing elegance and a smooth reading rhythm in display-to-text contexts where nuance and tone matter.
The italic construction is consistent across letters and figures, with lively entry/exit strokes and a graceful baseline flow. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast and slant, helping mixed text and dates feel cohesive.
