A high-contrast italic serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Curved strokes show diagonal stress and tapered terminals, while joins and serifs feel sculpted rather than mechanical. Uppercase forms are moderately wide with crisp entry/exit strokes, and the lowercase is fluid with a slightly lively, hand-influenced modulation. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and pronounced thick–thin transitions.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or secondary text. It also performs nicely in magazine features, pull quotes, and refined headlines where its contrast and calligraphic motion can be appreciated.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a formal, editorial polish. Its energetic italic movement adds sophistication and a touch of vintage charm, suggesting tradition and refinement rather than strict modern minimalism.
Likely designed as a conventional text serif italic that combines traditional proportions with expressive, calligraphy-derived detailing. The intent appears to be providing an elegant, readable italic with enough character for editorial distinction while maintaining a familiar, classical structure.
Stroke contrast and angled axis are consistent across letters and figures, creating strong texture and sparkle in paragraphs. The italic slant is steady and readable, and the serif shaping stays sharp at display sizes while still feeling suited to continuous text.
