A high-contrast serif italic with sharp hairlines and swelling main strokes, giving a crisp, engraved feel. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered terminals and a pronounced rightward slant throughout. Proportions feel slightly high-waisted, with narrow internal counters and elegant, calligraphic stroke modulation; curves (C, S, O) show clean stress and pointed joins, while diagonals (V, W, X) read slender and precise. Numerals and capitals maintain the same razor-thin detailing, producing a delicate but highly polished texture in continuous text.
Well suited for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding systems where an italic voice is meant to carry emphasis with style. It also fits luxury packaging, invitations, and other premium print applications that benefit from high-contrast sophistication and elegant typography.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, projecting an editorial, fashion-forward sophistication. Its sharp contrast and italic movement suggest elegance and formality, with a slightly theatrical flair suited to premium branding and display moments.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic italic serif voice with strong contrast and a polished, editorial finish. Its intent seems to prioritize elegance and visual distinction over neutrality, providing a formal, expressive typographic color for display and emphasized text.
In paragraph settings the rhythm is lively due to strong contrast and pronounced italic entry/exit strokes, creating a distinctive sparkle at larger sizes. The design’s delicate hairlines and tight apertures make it feel best when given generous size and spacing, where the crisp details can remain clear.
