A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced calligraphic modulation and sharply tapered joins. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with strong diagonal stress in rounded forms and a fluid, rightward slant throughout. Capitals feel stately and slightly narrow with crisp terminals, while the lowercase is more animated, featuring compact bowls, angled entry strokes, and a distinctly cursive rhythm. Figures follow the same italic logic, with slender stems and curved shapes that keep the texture lively in running text.
Well-suited for editorial typography where an italic voice is needed—emphasis, quotes, captions, and sidebars in books and magazines. It also performs nicely for refined display settings such as literary titles, formal announcements, and elegant short-form branding where crisp contrast and classic italic movement are desirable.
The overall tone is refined and literary, evoking classic book typography and traditional editorial design. Its brisk contrast and lively italic movement add a sense of sophistication and formality, while still reading as familiar and conventional rather than decorative.
Likely designed to provide a traditional, expressive italic companion for text typography, emphasizing classical proportions, clear modulation, and a confident calligraphic rhythm that reads smoothly in paragraphs while retaining a polished presence in larger settings.
Stroke endings and serifs resolve into sharp, clean points that give the face a polished, engraved feel at display sizes. The italic construction is consistent across letters and numerals, producing an energetic baseline flow and noticeable word-shape character.
