A high-contrast serif italic with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms show strong thick–thin modulation, tapered terminals, and finely bracketed serifs that sharpen into points on diagonals and entry strokes. Capitals are narrow and poised with smooth curves and controlled stress, while the lowercase maintains a steady, text-friendly x-height with lively, calligraphic joins. Overall spacing reads open for an italic, with a rhythmic, slightly variable cadence across characters that emphasizes vertical strokes and sweeping diagonals.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where an elegant italic voice is needed. It can also support book covers, invitations, and brand wordmarks that benefit from high-contrast refinement, and can be used for short-form text where a graceful, expressive emphasis is desired.
The tone is polished and expressive, balancing classical bookish sophistication with a distinctly stylish, contemporary editorial flair. Its sharp contrast and fluid italic motion convey luxury, delicacy, and a sense of forward momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver a classical, high-contrast italic for sophisticated communication—combining traditional serif construction with a sleek, fashion-oriented edge. It prioritizes elegance and motion, offering an italic that reads as both formal and expressive.
Figures appear lining with similarly high contrast and elegant curvature, giving numerals a refined, display-leaning presence. The italic forms retain clarity through crisp counters and decisive terminals, though the thin hairlines suggest best performance when reproduction quality is high.
