A high-contrast italic serif with slender hairlines and sharply tapered stroke endings. The forms show a pronounced diagonal slant, vertical stress, and crisp, delicate serifs that read as fine and pointed rather than heavy or bracketed. Capitals are narrow and formal with sweeping entry and exit strokes, while the lowercase combines compact counters with graceful loops and occasional flourished terminals (notably in f, g, y, and z). Numerals are similarly calligraphic and slightly varied in width, maintaining an overall light, sparkling texture across lines of text.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book titling, and high-end brand marks where its contrast and italic movement can be appreciated. It also fits formal materials like invitations and certificates, and works well for short passages when set with adequate size and leading.
The font conveys a polished, aristocratic tone—poised, stylish, and slightly dramatic. Its sharp contrasts and italic rhythm suggest luxury and tradition, with an editorial sensibility that feels suited to refined branding and cultural contexts.
The design appears intended to evoke classic high-fashion and literary italics through pronounced contrast, sharp finishing, and calligraphic modulation. Its goal is to deliver an elegant, authoritative voice with a light, sparkling page color and distinctive italic character.
The italic construction is continuous and assertive, giving words a flowing, forward motion. Hairline details and tight joins create a crisp silhouette that will reward generous sizes and comfortable spacing, especially in print-like settings.
