A high-contrast serif italic with a crisp, calligraphic stress and sharply tapered terminals. The serifs are bracketed and finely pointed, with thin hairlines and robust main stems that create a lively light–dark rhythm. Letterforms lean forward with smooth, continuous curves and compact joins, and the overall color stays clean and controlled in text. Figures follow the same italic, high-contrast construction with angled stress and delicate finishing strokes.
Well suited to editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, such as book typography, magazines, and long-form reading layouts. It also works effectively for literary titling, pull quotes, and refined promotional copy where a classic italic presence can carry tone and hierarchy.
The tone is refined and literary, projecting a classic, cultured feel associated with traditional book typography and editorial design. Its pronounced contrast and italic slant add a sense of motion and emphasis while remaining composed and formal.
Designed to provide a conventional yet characterful serif italic for text, balancing traditional proportions with pronounced contrast and disciplined detailing. The intent appears to be a readable, elegant italic style that can deliver emphasis without losing typographic polish.
The italic forms show a consistent rightward slant and a strong diagonal energy in capitals, with sculpted curves in rounds and a distinctive, sweeping rhythm in letters like J, Q, and y. At larger sizes the hairlines read especially sharp, while in continuous text the contrast produces a polished, high-end texture.
