A delicate italic serif with pronounced stroke modulation and sharp, bracketed serifs. The forms lean decisively with a quick, calligraphic cadence, showing tapered terminals and fine hairlines against fuller main strokes. Proportions feel compact and text-minded, with open counters and a slightly varied, lively rhythm across glyphs rather than rigid uniformity. The numerals appear italic and largely oldstyle in character, reinforcing an editorial, bookish texture.
Works well for typographic emphasis within long-form reading—book and essay italics, captions, and footnote emphasis—where a refined, traditional italic is expected. It can also serve for magazine decks, pull quotes, and elegant short-form pieces where a graceful, literary tone is desirable.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, suggesting traditional print refinement rather than a modernist or technical voice. Its brisk italic movement and crisp detailing give it an expressive, slightly formal presence suited to nuanced emphasis.
The design appears intended as a classic text companion italic: crisp and expressive, with calligraphic modulation and traditional serif detailing that prioritize elegance and readable flow in editorial settings.
Several capitals show restrained, classical construction, while lowercase italics feature flowing joins and pronounced entry/exit strokes that enhance the sense of motion. At larger sizes the thin strokes read especially crisp, while in continuous text the face builds a smooth, sophisticated gray with a gently animated baseline feel.
