A slanted, high-contrast serif with sculpted, tapering strokes and flared terminals that read as chiseled rather than blunt. Thick verticals pair with hairline joins, producing sharp teardrop-like apertures and pointed connections throughout. Serifs are small and wedge-like, with frequent spur and beak details that give the outlines a carved, inked quality. Proportions feel slightly condensed and lively, with noticeable width variation from glyph to glyph; the lowercase shows compact counters and energetic curves, while capitals stay crisp and weighty.
Best suited to headlines, magazine styling, fashion and beauty branding, and poster work where contrast and slant can provide instant impact. It can also work for short pull quotes and titling, especially when generous spacing and size allow the fine hairlines to stay clear.
The font projects a bold, theatrical elegance—confident and luxurious rather than quiet or utilitarian. Its calligraphic stress and razor-thin highlights create a couture/editorial tone with a hint of vintage drama.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern, high-fashion italic voice built from classical serif cues, emphasizing flare, contrast, and sharp terminals to create a distinctive display texture. Its letterforms prioritize drama and sophistication over neutrality, suggesting use in expressive titling and brand-forward typography.
At larger sizes the sharp joins and hairline transitions become a defining feature, creating a glossy, display-oriented texture. The numerals and round letters emphasize strong contrast and pointed interior shapes, reinforcing a refined but attention-grabbing rhythm across text.
