A delicate italic serif with a hairline overall color and a gently wavering baseline rhythm. Strokes are thin and even, with crisp, squared-off slab-like terminals that read as small, unbracketed serifs rather than flared ends. Curves are open and lightly tensioned, and many joins feel slightly calligraphic, giving the letterforms a soft, drawn quality despite the sharp terminals. Proportions are compact and upright-leaning in structure but consistently slanted, producing a light, quick texture in words.
Best suited to short-to-medium passages where a refined, airy italic voice is desired—editorial pull quotes, chapter openers, and elegant headlines. It also works well for boutique branding, invitations, and packaging where a delicate serif with a slightly handwritten cadence can add character without becoming overtly script-like.
The tone is quiet and elegant, with a subtle playful edge that feels personal rather than formal. Its thin presence and slight irregularity suggest a literary, boutique sensibility—more poetic and intimate than authoritative.
The design appears intended to blend the crispness of slab terminals with a light, calligraphic italic flow, creating an expressive serif that remains readable while feeling human and crafted. The consistent thin stroke and sharp terminals aim for a distinctive, understated texture in display and elegant text settings.
In text, the fine strokes and tight internal spaces create a lace-like texture that benefits from generous size and spacing. Numerals follow the same slender, italicized logic and maintain the crisp slab terminals, keeping a cohesive, lightly stylized voice across letters and figures.
