This is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a crisp, calligraphic stress. Strokes transition sharply from very thin hairlines to firm main stems, with tapered terminals and finely bracketed serifs that stay delicate rather than slab-like. Curves are drawn with a smooth, lively rhythm, and many letters show subtle entry/exit flicks that enhance the sense of motion. Proportions skew narrow, with compact counters and a tight overall footprint that helps lines of text feel sleek and continuous.
It performs best in editorial settings where an italic voice is meant to carry style and emphasis—magazine features, book jackets, section openers, and pull quotes. It can also serve in elegant branding lines or packaging copy when used at sizes that preserve the fine hairlines.
The tone is polished and editorial, combining classical bookishness with a distinctly fashion-forward sheen. Its sharp hairlines and lively italic movement convey sophistication and a slightly dramatic, rhetorical voice suited to premium or literary contexts.
The design appears intended to provide a refined, conventional serif italic with heightened contrast and a compact set, delivering a luxurious, expressive texture for display and editorial typography while remaining rooted in familiar text-serif construction.
In text, the strong contrast and narrow set create a dark–light sparkle across a line, especially where hairlines cross and join. Figures follow the same italic logic, with curved forms that echo the lettering’s calligraphic flow, helping numerals sit naturally in running text.
