A high-contrast italic serif with slender hairlines and weighty, smoothly modulated main strokes. Serifs are crisp and largely bracketed, often forming sharp, tapered terminals that reinforce the slanted, calligraphic construction. Proportions feel traditional with moderate apertures and a compact, controlled rhythm; curves are clean and the italics show notable entry/exit strokes and angled stress. Figures and capitals carry the same engraved, editorial feel, with narrow joins and pointed details that read well at display and text sizes.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography, especially for italics in running text, quotations, and emphasis. It also works for refined headlines, pull quotes, and section openers where a traditional, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is classical and literary, suggesting editorial polish and a sense of tradition. Its sharp, italic energy adds a cultured, slightly dramatic emphasis without becoming decorative or playful.
Likely designed as a conventional text serif italic that prioritizes readability and classical form, while providing a graceful, high-contrast color for sophisticated typography.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving paragraphs a cohesive forward motion. Contrast and tapered terminals create a bright, elegant texture, while the forms remain conventional enough for continuous reading.
