A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, knife-like hairlines and weight concentrated in smooth, swelling thick strokes. The letterforms show a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic construction, with tapered terminals, fine entry/exit strokes, and a crisp, vertical-stress feel. Capitals are narrow and sculpted with long, elegant curves, while the lowercase uses flowing, slightly varied widths and generous ascenders that create a lively rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrasty model, with thin joins and bold bowls that read as refined rather than heavy.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and luxury branding where elegance and contrast are desired. It also fits invitations, certificates, and refined packaging, and can be used for short text passages when set at comfortable sizes with ample spacing.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, evoking fashion publishing and classical sophistication. Its dramatic contrast and poised italic movement feel ceremonial and expressive, lending a sense of prestige and artistry.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast italic: dramatic in stroke modulation, graceful in motion, and optimized for expressive typography rather than utilitarian neutrality.
In continuous text the thin hairlines and sharp serifs create a sparkling texture that looks best when given enough size and breathing room. The italic slant and tapered details make it especially striking for emphasis and display, where the stroke contrast and curvature can be appreciated.
