A slanted, gently calligraphic italic with smooth, rounded construction and clean, uninterrupted strokes. Curves dominate the silhouettes, with open counters and a consistent forward rhythm. Terminals are mostly tapered and softly finished rather than sharply cut, and several letters show subtle looped or hooked details (notably in the lowercases), giving the design an active, handwritten energy while remaining orderly. Spacing reads comfortable and even in text, with clear word shapes and a steady baseline despite the pronounced slant.
Well suited for editorial typography such as pull quotes, intros, captions, and emphasis within longer reading, where a graceful italic voice is needed. It can also support refined branding and packaging, especially where a classic, cultivated tone is desired.
The font conveys a polished, editorial tone—graceful and composed, with a touch of personal warmth. Its flowing italic character suggests sophistication and tradition, lending text an expressive, literary feel without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as a legible, expressive italic that adds elegance and motion to text while maintaining clarity and consistency across letters and figures.
Uppercase forms stay restrained and rounded, while the lowercase carries more personality through cursive-like joins and looped descenders. Numerals follow the same fluid logic, mixing rounded bowls with angled entry/exit strokes for a cohesive, text-friendly texture.
