A delicate italic serif with fine hairlines and gently tapered strokes. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a slightly calligraphic, pen-driven modulation that keeps counters open and forms readable despite the light weight. The capitals are stately and restrained, while the lowercase shows more movement through angled entry strokes and subtle terminals; overall spacing feels airy with a smooth, even rhythm across words and lines. Numerals follow the same refined construction, with light curves and understated finishing details.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and refined pull quotes where an italic voice is needed with clarity. It also fits formal communications—programs, invitations, and branding accents—especially at medium to larger sizes where the hairline details can breathe.
The font conveys a poised, literary sophistication—quietly formal rather than loud or decorative. Its italic slant and fine detailing suggest tradition, taste, and editorial polish, lending a graceful tone to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended as a conventional text italic that prioritizes elegance and readability, combining classical serif structure with a light, graceful cadence for sophisticated typographic emphasis.
The italic construction is consistent across the set, with a measured slant and controlled contrast that keeps the texture even in paragraph settings. Curved letters (like C, O, Q and their lowercase counterparts) maintain a clean, classical geometry, while the lowercase’s subtle swash-like turns add warmth without becoming ornate.
