A slender, sharply drawn serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes taper into pointed, flared terminals and fine hairlines, while joins and curves stay clean and controlled, giving the forms a crisp, engraved feel. Capitals are relatively tall and poised with delicate serifs, and the lowercase maintains a steady italic slant with narrow, compact counters and neatly cut entry/exit strokes that keep text color even despite the contrast.
Works best for editorial headlines, magazine display, and book or chapter titling where the crisp contrast and italic movement can be appreciated. It also suits premium branding—especially fashion, beauty, and cultural institutions—and formal printed pieces such as invitations and announcements where a refined serif voice is needed.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, leaning toward literary sophistication rather than casual expressiveness. Its sharp terminals and sweeping italic movement suggest formality and taste—suited to settings where a sense of craft and prestige is desired.
Designed to deliver a sophisticated italic voice with strong contrast and flared finishing, balancing classical serif structure with a lightly calligraphic edge. The intention appears centered on display and editorial use, emphasizing elegance, sparkle, and forward motion without becoming overly ornamental.
In text, the italic slope and tight proportions create a quick, forward motion, while the high-contrast hairlines add sparkle at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same refined, tapered finishing, helping mixed-case compositions feel consistent and intentional.
