A sharply inclined serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline connecting strokes. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered terminals and a distinctly calligraphic flow that shows in the curved entries and exits. Capitals feel poised and slightly narrow with crisp, chiselled contours, while the lowercase has a lively rhythm, long ascenders/descenders, and fluid joins that give the text a continuous, handwritten-like slant. Numerals follow the same formal, high-contrast construction, reading cleanly but with delicate details that prefer generous sizing.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and refined branding where an elegant italic can carry the voice. It also fits invitations and formal announcements, as well as pull quotes or short passages that benefit from a graceful, high-contrast texture. For longer reading, it’s likely most comfortable when used selectively or at comfortable sizes with adequate spacing.
The overall tone is polished and expressive, balancing classical bookish elegance with a touch of fashion-forward drama. Its sweeping italic energy and fine details suggest sophistication, ceremony, and a premium editorial voice rather than everyday utility.
The design appears intended as a classic, high-contrast serif italic for expressive setting—capturing the feel of pointed-pen calligraphy within a structured, typographic framework. Its focus is on elegance, motion, and visual refinement for standout text rather than utilitarian neutrality.
At display sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals read as precise and luxurious; in smaller settings the delicacy of the thinnest strokes may call for careful use on high-resolution outputs. The italic angle and strong modulation create a distinctive cadence that stands out in headlines and pull quotes.
