A very delicate, high‑contrast italic serif with hairline joins and slender, tapering strokes. Serifs are fine and lightly bracketed, with a pronounced rightward slant and calligraphic modulation that gives curves a smooth, drawn quality. Capitals are narrow and poised with generous internal space, while lowercase forms keep a moderate x-height and long, flowing ascenders/descenders that create a lively line. Numerals follow the same thin, sculpted rhythm, with elegant curves and minimal terminals.
Best suited to display and editorial roles where its fine contrast and italic flow can be appreciated—magazine features, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and upscale branding. It also works well for formal stationery such as invitations or programs when set at comfortable sizes with ample leading.
The overall tone is graceful and cultured, suggesting editorial sophistication and a luxury sensibility. Its light touch and sharp contrast feel quiet, formal, and polished rather than robust or utilitarian.
Designed to provide an elegant italic voice for classical serif typography, prioritizing sophistication, rhythm, and refined contrast over rugged small-size durability. The consistent calligraphic stress and restrained detailing suggest an emphasis on high-end editorial and branding aesthetics.
In text settings the slender horizontals and hairline details emphasize a refined rhythm, with punctuation and dots appearing small and crisp. The italic construction is consistent across cases, giving paragraphs a continuous forward motion and a distinctly literary texture.
