An italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and tapered, with sharp entry/exit strokes and slightly flared terminals that keep the texture crisp. Uppercase forms feel stately and controlled, while the lowercase shows more movement through angled stress, gently curved joins, and varied stroke endings; rounded letters stay open and the overall spacing reads even in text. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant curves and compact, text-friendly proportions.
Well-suited for long-form editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine features where an expressive italic is needed for emphasis. It can also serve effectively in refined branding, packaging, and formal announcements where a classic, cultured voice is desired.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone with a refined, editorial polish. Its energetic italics add sophistication and a sense of narrative momentum, balancing formality with warmth.
Designed to provide a conventional text serif italic that reads smoothly while delivering expressive, high-contrast character. The intent appears to be a versatile, literature-forward style that supports sustained reading and adds elegant emphasis in headings and pull quotes.
The italics maintain clear differentiation between similar forms (for example, the straight versus curved strokes across i/j/l), and the overall silhouette stays consistent across the alphabet. Stroke contrast and pointed terminals give it a slightly dramatic sparkle in larger settings while remaining composed in paragraphs.
