A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered joins and bracketed serifs. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with hairline terminals, creating a bright, crisp texture in text. The italic construction is moderately slanted with a calligraphic rhythm, including curved entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like terminals, while counters remain relatively open for a traditional text face. Figures follow the same italic stress and contrast, and overall spacing reads even with a gently flowing line.
Well suited for body-text italics in books and long-form editorial layouts, where its contrast and rhythm help emphasize passages without losing a classic text feel. It also performs well for refined headlines, pull quotes, invitations, and brand applications that benefit from a traditional, high-end serif italic voice.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish elegance with a slightly dramatic, ceremonial tone. Its contrast and italic posture feel polished and cultivated, suggesting formality without becoming ornate. The overall impression is refined and literary, suited to contexts where a classic voice and a sense of craftsmanship are desired.
The design appears intended as a classic text companion italic: providing emphasis and hierarchy through contrast, slant, and calligraphic detailing while maintaining readability and a disciplined, conventional structure.
Uppercase forms are stately and clean, while lowercase shows more expressive italic movement, especially in characters with tails and descenders. The ampersand and curved terminals add a subtle flourish, but the design remains firmly within conventional text-serif expectations.
