A delicate italic serif with pronounced stroke modulation: hairline connectors and sharply tapered terminals contrast with fuller stressed strokes. Serifs are fine and pointed, often wedge-like, with a lively, calligraphic entry/exit on many letters. The capitals feel expansive and sculpted, while the lowercase shows fluid joins, open counters, and a rhythmic forward slant that creates a smooth reading line. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with graceful curves and thin horizontal elements that keep the overall color light and airy.
Well suited to editorial design, fashion and lifestyle layouts, and elegant branding where a refined italic voice is needed. It can also work for invitations and premium packaging when set at sizes large enough to preserve the thin details and contrast.
The tone is polished and expressive, balancing classical bookish cues with a distinctly contemporary, runway-editorial sheen. Its crisp hairlines and italic movement give it a poised, luxurious feel that reads as premium and intentional rather than casual.
The design appears aimed at delivering a high-end italic serif with striking contrast and graceful motion—something that elevates typography through sharp refinement, airy color, and a subtly calligraphic finish.
Spacing appears generous, helping the fine hairlines stay distinct in running text. Several forms show subtle flourish—especially in diagonals and terminals—adding personality without tipping into script.
