A high-contrast serif italic with a sculpted, calligraphic skeleton and lively stroke modulation. Stems and diagonals taper and flare into pointed, wedge-like terminals, while serifs are bracketed and often sharpened into beak forms, giving the contours a crisp, cut-in feel. The rhythm is tight and forward-leaning, with compact proportions, narrow internal counters, and a pronounced slant that makes word shapes feel energetic. Numerals follow the same chiseled logic, with strong thick–thin transitions and tapered finishing strokes.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and brand marks where high contrast and a sharp, flared finish can be appreciated at larger sizes. It also works well for fashion/beauty editorial, luxury packaging, and promotional materials that benefit from a refined yet assertive italic voice.
The tone is elegant and editorial, balancing classic sophistication with a fashion-forward edge. Its dramatic contrast and sharp terminals read as confident and slightly theatrical, suited to expressive typographic moments rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctly italic, calligraphy-informed serif for display typography, emphasizing dramatic contrast and flared, tapered endings to create motion and a premium, editorial character.
Spacing appears designed for display impact: strong diagonals, narrow apertures, and pointed joins create a brisk texture that can look dense in longer runs but striking in short lines. The italic construction feels integral (not simply slanted), with consistent stress and terminal treatment across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
