A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, hairline serifs, and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. The forms show strong diagonal stress and tapered stroke endings, with crisp joins and delicately bracketed serifs that keep the texture light despite the dark main strokes. Proportions feel traditional and text-oriented, with relatively compact lowercase and clear ascender/descender movement that adds sparkle to lines of copy.
Best suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and refined long-form passages where an italic voice is desired. It also works well for headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials like invitations or cultural branding where a classic, high-contrast serif can provide distinction.
The overall tone is polished and classic, leaning toward an editorial, bookish elegance. Its sharp hairlines and sweeping italic motion convey sophistication and a slightly dramatic, high-fashion sensibility without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic companion with strong contrast and a traditional, literary feel, balancing sharp hairlines with stable, readable letterforms. Its consistent rhythm and carefully tapered details suggest a focus on sophisticated text setting and elegant emphasis.
In the sample text, the font creates a distinct shimmering texture from the contrast and the consistent italic slant, while capitals remain stately and open. Numerals appear lining and similarly contrasty, matching the refined, print-like character of the letters.
