A very slender italic serif with crisp, square-ended slab-like terminals and a pronounced forward slant. Strokes are fine and clean, with moderate thick–thin movement and a smooth, continuous rhythm that keeps the texture light and open. The shapes lean on tall proportions and narrow joins, with neat, unbracketed-looking serifs that read as sharp and architectural rather than soft or rounded. Numerals and lowercase carry the same delicate, slightly calligraphic energy, producing an overall refined, high-end color in text.
Best suited for display and short-to-medium text where a refined italic voice is desirable—magazine features, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, cultural branding, and formal stationery. It can also work in larger body sizes for elegant editorial layouts where a light typographic color is intentional.
The tone is polished and literary, combining editorial sophistication with a subtle formal flair. Its slim, slanted presence feels elegant and slightly vintage, suited to contexts that want restraint and style rather than loud personality.
The design appears intended to deliver a graceful italic reading experience with a crisp, slab-accented finish—balancing classic serif manners with a sharper, more architectural edge. It prioritizes elegance, forward motion, and a light page color for sophisticated typography.
The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving lines a cohesive forward motion. Spacing appears generous enough to keep the very fine strokes from clumping, and the letterforms maintain a disciplined, even cadence in continuous reading.
