A high-contrast italic serif with a clear calligraphic slant and crisp, tapered terminals. Strokes transition from thin hairlines to heavier stems with smooth modulation, and the serifs read as small, bracketed wedges rather than slabs. Curves are generous and slightly springy, giving counters a lively rhythm, while joins and entry strokes show a subtle pen-like logic. Uppercase forms are moderately wide and poised; lowercase is compact and flowing with a pronounced italic structure and consistent baseline alignment.
This face performs well in editorial settings such as magazines, book interiors, and literary publishing where an italic text voice is desired. It also suits invitations, titles, and pull quotes that benefit from a refined, classical tone and pronounced contrast. Best results will come from layouts that allow its hairlines and angled stress to remain clear.
The font conveys a traditional, literary tone with a refined, slightly dramatic elegance. Its sharp hairlines and poised slant feel formal and cultivated, while the energetic curves keep it from feeling stiff. Overall it suggests classic editorial polish—suited to expressive reading rather than utilitarian signage.
The design appears intended as a conventional serif italic with elevated contrast and a graceful, pen-influenced rhythm—aimed at delivering a classic reading experience with an elegant, expressive voice.
Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic and appear designed to blend seamlessly with text. The sample text shows strong word-shape and a steady, readable texture at display-to-subhead sizes, with distinctive italic emphasis built into the default style.
