A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads as calligraphically influenced. The forms show compact, angled terminals, brisk curves, and a consistent rightward slant, producing a lively rhythm across words. Capitals appear stately and slightly narrow with clean, chiseled joins, while the lowercase maintains an even x-height and elegant, flowing proportions.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where italic is used for emphasis, titles, or quotations. It also fits formal invitations, cultural branding, and packaging that benefits from a traditional, elegant serif italic. For best results, it performs especially well at text and display sizes where the contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated.
This typeface conveys a poised, literary tone with a sense of refinement and tradition. Its slanted posture and crisp detailing add a gentle forward motion that feels formal, polished, and slightly dramatic without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as an italic companion for conventional text typography, offering emphasis with sophistication rather than flamboyance. Its strong contrast and controlled slant aim to provide a classic, bookish voice that remains legible while adding energy and hierarchy.
The numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast construction and feel harmonious alongside the letters, making the overall set cohesive for continuous reading. The spacing and rhythm in the sample text suggest it is designed to hold together in paragraphs while still delivering a distinctly italic, energetic texture.
