A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a flowing, right-leaning axis that gives strokes a written, calligraphic cadence while remaining clearly typographic. Curves are smooth and open, counters stay generous, and spacing feels slightly expanded, lending an airy texture. Capitals are slender and poised, while lowercase forms show lively joins and occasional swash-like entry and exit strokes, producing a rhythmic, forward-moving line.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and literary titling where an italic voice is desired. It also fits refined invitations, cultural programs, and fashion or boutique branding, especially for headlines, pull quotes, and short passages that benefit from a graceful, high-contrast texture.
The font conveys a cultivated, bookish elegance—formal without feeling stiff. Its refined contrast and italic motion suggest tradition, ceremony, and editorial sophistication, with a touch of romantic, handwritten warmth.
The design appears intended to offer a classic italic serif with a distinctly calligraphic flow—balancing traditional proportions and crisp contrast with expressive, elegant movement for premium reading and display contexts.
Round letters keep a crisp hairline edge, and diagonals and joins are clean, creating a polished sparkle at display sizes. Numerals follow the same italic rhythm with graceful curves, supporting mixed text where figures need to feel integrated rather than purely utilitarian.
