A delicate italic slab-serif with a narrow stance, generous white space, and softly bracketed, rounded serifs. Strokes keep a largely even weight with subtle modulation, and the curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, giving a gentle forward rhythm. Ascenders are tall and prominent, counters are open, and terminals often finish with small, rounded slab ends that keep the texture consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a graceful italic voice is desired, such as editorial pull quotes, book and magazine titling, invitations, and premium packaging. It also suits branding that wants a refined, lightly vintage tone, particularly at display sizes where the slim proportions and delicate serifs can breathe.
The overall tone feels elegant and slightly whimsical, with a bookish, old-style charm. Its lightness and steady slant convey refinement and softness rather than force, making it feel expressive without becoming flamboyant.
Likely designed to provide an elegant, lightly calligraphic italic with slab-serif structure, balancing readability with a distinctive, graceful personality. The narrow proportions and rounded serif treatment suggest an emphasis on a polished, decorative text color rather than heavy, high-impact display weight.
Uppercase forms read tall and poised, while the lowercase leans more handwritten in spirit, especially in letters with looping descenders. Numerals are similarly slender and flowing, matching the text rhythm and maintaining a quiet, airy color on the page.
