An italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a flowing, calligraphic construction. The letterforms show tapered entry and exit strokes, bracketed serifs, and gently swelling curves that create a lively rhythm. Proportions are moderately narrow with a noticeable forward slant, while counters stay open enough for comfortable reading in text. Capitals are slightly more upright and stately, and the overall texture alternates between sharp hairlines and weighty verticals for a crisp, elegant page color.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and magazine layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotes, or subheads. It can also work for refined headlines and short display lines, especially where a classic, high-contrast italic feel supports the content.
The tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography and editorial polish. Its energetic italic movement reads as expressive without becoming ornamental, conveying refinement and authority. The high-contrast stroke pattern adds a sense of sophistication and formality.
The design appears intended to provide a classic, readable italic companion with strong contrast and a traditional serif vocabulary. Its goal seems to be delivering elegant emphasis in text settings while retaining enough personality for occasional display use.
Figures follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curved forms (like 2, 3, 5, 8, 9) showing pronounced terminals and lively diagonals. The italic is relatively assertive, so at larger sizes it takes on a distinctly stylish, display-leaning voice while still remaining rooted in conventional text-serif norms.
