A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and fuller vertical strokes, producing a crisp, sparkling texture. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with pointed terminals and a distinctly calligraphic slant that carries through both caps and lowercase. Curves show a refined, slightly flamboyant modulation—especially in the bowls and entry/exit strokes—while the overall proportions read comfortably broad, giving letters room to breathe in display sizes. Numerals echo the same contrast and italic momentum, with elegant curves and thin connecting strokes.
Best used for headlines, pull quotes, magazine features, and other editorial typography where an italic voice is needed with authority. It also suits refined branding, event materials, and book or album titling, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the hairline serifs and stroke modulation stay clear.
The font conveys a polished, literary tone with a touch of theatrical flair. Its bright contrast and sweeping italic rhythm suggest sophistication and ceremony, suited to settings where a sense of refinement and emphasis is desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic text-serif voice with heightened contrast and a more demonstrative, calligraphic cadence. It prioritizes elegance and emphasis, offering a formal, attention-getting italic for editorial and promotional settings.
In running text the strong contrast creates a lively rhythm with noticeable sparkle in the counters and joins; the italic angle and pointed details make it feel more expressive than utilitarian. The shapes remain conventional enough for familiar reading, but the delicate hairlines and energetic curves push it toward display and titling use where details can be appreciated.
