This typeface is a sharply cut italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and flared, wedge-like terminals that often finish in pointed, blade-shaped ends. The forms lean decisively, with energetic entry and exit strokes that give letters a calligraphic, carved feel. Curves are smooth but tightly controlled, counters are relatively compact, and joins create crisp internal angles that heighten the contrasty rhythm. Lowercase shows a flowing italic structure with a single-storey a and g, and a long, descender-forward y; numerals follow the same high-contrast, sculpted logic with tapered diagonals and emphatic stress.
Best suited to headlines, magazine covers, pull quotes, and branding moments where a refined but attention-grabbing italic is desired. It performs especially well at medium to large sizes where the sharp terminals and contrast can read cleanly and convey drama.
The overall tone is assertive and glamorous, combining classical italic refinement with a more theatrical, fashion-editorial punch. Its sharp terminals and high contrast suggest luxury and intensity rather than softness, giving headlines a sense of urgency and sophistication.
The design intent appears to modernize a traditional italic serif through exaggerated contrast and flared, knife-like terminals, creating a distinctive display voice that feels both classic and contemporary. It prioritizes impact, rhythm, and stylistic character over neutral text utility.
Spacing appears designed for display: letterforms are wide enough to breathe in headlines but the strong diagonal movement and pointed terminals create a lively texture that can feel dense in long passages. The font’s distinctive terminal shapes and flaring are consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a coherent, signature look.
