A high-contrast italic serif with hairline joins and crisp, tapering terminals. The forms are narrow-to-moderate in footprint with a fluid rightward slant, giving the alphabet a continuous, calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are small and bracketed, and many strokes finish in sharp points or delicate curves, producing an airy texture. Round letters show thin, precise hairlines against fuller main strokes, while capitals are sculpted and open, with a restrained, classical silhouette.
Best suited to editorial typography, magazine features, and book or cultural titles where a refined italic voice is desired. It also works well for invitations, high-end packaging, and luxury identity applications, especially at larger sizes where the fine details and hairlines can be appreciated.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, projecting a fashion and publishing sensibility rather than utilitarian neutrality. Its lightness and sharp detailing feel sophisticated and formal, with a gentle, poetic movement from the italic construction.
The design appears intended to provide a classical, high-contrast italic for sophisticated text and display use, emphasizing grace, sharp detailing, and traditional serif manners. Its consistent slant and delicate finishing suggest a focus on elegance and tone-setting rather than rugged everyday utility.
The italic structure is strongly expressed in both caps and lowercase, with long entry/exit strokes on letters like a, f, j, and y that add sparkle in display settings. Numerals follow the same elegant contrast and slanted stance, blending well with text and titling.
