A high-contrast italic serif with slender hairlines and tapered, calligraphic thick–thin modulation. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with sharp entry/exit strokes and a right-leaning, flowing rhythm. The capitals keep classical proportions with crisp wedge-like terminals, while the lowercase shows a more cursive construction with lively joins, angled stress, and pronounced ascenders/descenders. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, giving figures a refined, slightly dramatic texture in lines of text.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and other long-form contexts where a classic italic voice is needed for emphasis. It also works effectively for upscale invitations, packaging, and brand identities that benefit from a refined, literary character.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a distinctly editorial elegance. Its brisk italic movement and sharp detailing suggest sophistication and a sense of ceremony, reading as more formal than casual.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional, high-contrast italic companion for text typography—balancing readability with expressive, calligraphy-informed shapes and an elevated, classic finish.
Spacing appears moderately open for an italic, helping preserve clarity despite the strong contrast and narrow hairlines. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, and the design maintains a steady baseline rhythm with energetic diagonals and tapered curves.
