A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and finely tapered, hairline terminals. Stems and diagonals are slender and crisp, while curves show smooth, calligraphic stress and a gently flowing rhythm. Serifs are small and sharp, often lightly bracketed into the stems, and many letters finish with subtle entry/exit flicks that enhance the cursive motion. Proportions feel moderately narrow with generous interior space, keeping the overall color light and open.
Best suited for editorial settings where an elegant italic voice is needed—introductions, pull quotes, captions, and refined typography in books or magazines. It also fits formal invitations and upscale branding where a light, graceful impression is desired, and performs well in larger sizes where its fine details can shine.
The tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and editorial sophistication. Its lightness and high contrast give it an upscale, graceful character suited to formal communication and cultured branding.
The design appears intended as a sophisticated italic companion for conventional serif typography, prioritizing elegance, smooth reading rhythm, and a traditional calligraphic flavor. It emphasizes refinement through high contrast, sharp finishing, and controlled proportions rather than overt decoration.
Capitals are poised and slightly restrained, with clean, pointed joins and minimal ornament; the italic slant reads consistent across the set. Lowercase forms show a distinctly cursive construction (notably in a, f, g, and y), giving the texture a lively, handwritten inflection while remaining firmly typographic. Numerals follow the same refined, high-contrast logic, pairing well with the letterforms in running text.
