A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered, hairline serifs and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions. The slant is consistent and fairly steep, with calligraphic modulation that creates lively diagonals and crisp entry/exit strokes. Capitals are narrow and sculpted with wedge-like terminals, while the lowercase shows a more flowing rhythm with teardrop-like joins and pointed finishes. Numerals follow the same contrasty, italicized construction, with open counters and delicate hairlines that emphasize a polished, editorial texture.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and refined display typography where elegance and contrast are desirable. It also fits fashion and luxury branding, invitations, and event materials that benefit from an italic, formal tone. For extended body text, it will be most comfortable at sufficiently large sizes and in print or high-quality rendering conditions that keep the hairlines intact.
The overall tone is sophisticated and expressive, projecting a classic, high-fashion elegance with a distinctly literary, old-world refinement. Its dramatic contrast and sharp terminals lend a sense of ceremony and poise, making text feel curated and upscale rather than utilitarian.
The font appears intended as a classic, high-contrast italic companion for sophisticated typography, prioritizing elegance, motion, and crisp detail over rugged readability. Its construction suggests a desire to evoke traditional serif craftsmanship in a contemporary, polished presentation.
The design reads best where its thin hairlines can be preserved; at smaller sizes or on low-resolution output the finest strokes may visually recede. Letterforms maintain a cohesive italic flow across cases, with a noticeable emphasis on sharp, pointed details and a slightly calligraphic cadence in curves and diagonals.
