This is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and sharp, tapered terminals. Strokes transition from fine hairlines to firm stems, with bracketed serifs that read crisp rather than heavy. The forms are compact and slightly narrow in rhythm, with open counters and a smooth cursive flow in the lowercase, including a single-storey a and g. Capitals maintain a stately, inscriptional feel while still leaning with the italic, and numerals follow the same calligraphic stress and contrast.
It works especially well as an italic companion for long-form typography—book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts—where emphasis, titles, or quoted material benefit from a graceful, high-contrast voice. It also suits display roles such as pull quotes, cultural programming, and formal stationery where elegance and tradition are desired.
The overall tone is refined and literary, conveying a traditional, cultured voice with a touch of drama. Its calligraphic stress and clean hairlines suggest formality and care, making it feel appropriate for elevated, classic messaging rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif italic with strong calligraphic lineage: clear serif structure, pronounced contrast, and a flowing, disciplined slant that supports readable word shapes while adding a refined, expressive tone.
The italic construction is consistent across cases, with lively entry/exit strokes and pointed joins that keep word shapes energetic. Hairlines become quite delicate in places, which increases the sense of sophistication and can make the design feel more luxurious at larger sizes.
