A very slender italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed rectangular serifs and a gently calligraphic flow. Strokes are generally even and light, with subtle tapering at joins and terminals rather than strong thick–thin modulation. The italic construction is steady and consistent, producing a smooth rightward rhythm; counters stay open and the spacing reads airy, especially in the lowercase. Capitals are narrow and poised, while the lowercase shows slightly varied widths and a softly cursive texture without becoming a script.
This face works well for editorial typography, magazine features, and book or booklet settings where an elegant italic voice is needed. It can also support refined branding, packaging, and invitation-style materials, particularly when paired with a sturdier roman companion for hierarchy.
The overall tone is cultured and understated, combining traditional bookish manners with a touch of contemporary sharpness. Its lightness and slanted posture lend it a graceful, somewhat formal voice suited to sophisticated reading environments.
The design appears intended to deliver a light, polished italic with slab-serif structure—balancing crisp, square serifs with a fluid handwritten cadence for readable, upscale text applications.
The numerals follow the same delicate, italicized logic and feel aligned with text use rather than display gimmicks. Serifs remain clean and squared throughout, helping maintain structure even as the letterforms lean and soften at the terminals.
