A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline serifs. The design is steeply slanted with long, tapering entry and exit strokes that create a smooth, continuous rhythm across words. Counters are relatively compact and the overall texture is clean and glossy, with sharp terminals and finely cut joins that read especially well at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals follow the same high-contrast logic, pairing sturdy stems with extremely thin connecting strokes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine pull quotes, book and journal titling, and brand applications that benefit from a sophisticated italic voice. It can also work well for invitations and high-end packaging where fine detail and contrast are desirable, while longer passages will typically benefit from careful size and spacing choices.
The font conveys a poised, editorial sophistication—more couture and literature than utilitarian UI. Its airy hairlines and sweeping italics suggest luxury, restraint, and a classic, old-world formality with a modern, polished finish.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxurious, high-contrast italic for display-driven typography—prioritizing elegance, cadence, and crisp detail over ruggedness. Its forms aim to add emphasis and style to text, functioning as a refined accent voice in editorial and branding systems.
The italic construction is consistently calligraphic in feel, with many letters showing extended curves and tapered endings that emphasize motion. The combination of thin serifs and sharp terminals makes it sensitive to reproduction conditions, rewarding generous sizing and high-quality output.
