A high-contrast italic serif with a graceful, calligraphic rhythm and sharp, tapered terminals. Strokes transition from hairline thins to robust mains, with bracketed serifs and angled stress that gives letters a forward, lively motion. Proportions feel traditionally bookish: capitals are relatively wide and poised, while lowercase forms are compact with rounded joins and prominent entry/exit strokes. Numerals match the italic slant and contrast, with delicate curves and tapered ends that keep the texture airy in running text.
Well-suited to editorial design, book or magazine typography, and any setting that benefits from a classic italic voice—such as pull quotes, intros, captions, or refined invitations. It can also serve as an elegant emphasis face alongside a companion roman, or for short-form display where its contrast and movement can be appreciated.
The overall tone is refined and literary, evoking classic editorial typography and formal correspondence. Its crisp contrast and flowing italic energy communicate sophistication and a sense of tradition rather than a contemporary or utilitarian mood.
Designed to deliver a traditional italic with strong contrast and a calligraphic sensibility, balancing readability with decorative nuance. The intention appears to be an italic that feels at home in literary and formal contexts while still offering enough flourish to stand out in headlines and highlighted text.
Spacing appears relatively open for an italic, helping maintain clarity despite thin hairlines. Several forms show expressive swashes and curved terminals (notably in letters like Q and some lowercase), adding a touch of flourish while keeping the overall texture controlled and text-oriented.
