A very slender italic slab serif with crisp, mostly unbracketed terminals and a clean, open construction. Strokes stay consistently thin with only subtle modulation, creating a light, linear texture and ample white space. Letterforms are generously proportioned with smooth, rounded bowls and long, gently angled ascenders and descenders; crossbars and joins feel restrained and precise rather than heavy. The numerals mirror the same delicate, slightly calligraphic rhythm, keeping an overall cohesive, high-finesse silhouette.
Best suited to editorial headlines, fashion and beauty branding, invitations, and premium packaging where a light, elegant italic can carry the voice. It also works well for pull quotes and short paragraphs at comfortable sizes with generous spacing, where its airy texture remains clear.
The tone is poised and sophisticated, with a quiet, editorial elegance. Its thin strokes and steady italic flow convey a sense of refinement and calm—more boutique and literary than loud or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to blend the structure of a slab serif with the finesse of a hairline italic, delivering a modern, upscale voice. It emphasizes clarity through open forms while using crisp slab terminals to keep the style distinct and recognizable.
In continuous text, the italic slant and delicate slabs create a graceful, handwritten-adjacent cadence while remaining clearly typographic. The thin build suggests it will read best when given breathing room, where its crisp terminals and open counters can stay distinct.
