A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline joins. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and terminals often finish in tapered, calligraphic points. The italic construction is lively and relatively steep, with flowing entry/exit strokes that create a continuous rhythm across words. Counters are compact and the overall texture alternates between sturdy main stems and very fine hairlines, producing a bright, sparkling page color at display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial typography—magazine features, book titling, and pull quotes—where high contrast and an energetic italic voice can be showcased. It also fits formal communications such as invitations or announcements, and works effectively for brand wordmarks that want a classic, refined serif tone.
The font reads as polished and literary, with a distinctly editorial tone. Its sharp serifs and energetic slant suggest sophistication and formality, while the calligraphic stroke logic adds a touch of drama and expressiveness.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional text-serif foundation expressed through an expressive italic, emphasizing contrast, sharp finishing, and a smooth cursive rhythm for sophisticated typography.
Uppercase forms feel stately and controlled, while the lowercase shows more movement, especially in curved letters and the deeper descenders. Numerals follow the same contrast model, with thin connecting strokes and tapered finishing details that keep the set visually consistent with the letters.
