A slender italic serif with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. The serifs are fine and bracketed, and the curves show a gentle calligraphic flow with consistent rightward slant. Counters are relatively open for the style, while joins and apexes stay sharp, giving a clean, glossy rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals follow the same high-contrast logic, with delicate hairlines and more substantial stressed strokes that read clearly at display sizes.
Well suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and magazine typography where an elegant italic voice is needed. It can also support refined branding and formal collateral such as invitations or packaging, particularly when set at larger sizes where the hairlines and bracketed serifs can remain crisp.
The overall tone is polished and literary, suggesting sophistication and formality without feeling rigid. Its lively italic motion and fine detailing evoke classic book typography and high-end editorial styling.
The design appears intended as a classic, high-style text serif italic that brings calligraphic elegance to contemporary typesetting. It prioritizes finesse, contrast, and rhythm for sophisticated reading and display applications.
In longer settings the strong contrast and thin hairlines create a shimmering texture, especially in diagonals and curved strokes. The italic forms feel traditionally constructed rather than oblique, with distinct entry/exit strokes and elegant, tapered finishing that rewards generous size and spacing.
