A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a hairline overall color. The letterforms lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, using tapered strokes and sharp, clean terminals that often finish in small wedge-like serifs. Capitals are graceful and slightly elongated, with restrained flourishes (notably in forms like Q) and crisp entry/exit strokes. Lowercase shows a gently cursive flow, with narrow joins, a single-storey a, and tall ascenders that contribute to an open, airy texture. Numerals match the same high-contrast, drawn-with-a-pen feel, reading as elegant rather than utilitarian.
Well-suited to high-end editorial layouts, fashion or beauty branding, and elegant invitations where a refined italic voice is desired. It shines in headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium text settings that can preserve the hairline details and contrast.
The font projects a poised, editorial sophistication—more couture and literary than industrial. Its light touch and polished contrast suggest luxury and calm precision, with a subtle handwritten sensibility that keeps it expressive without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion italic serif with a calligraphic backbone—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and graceful movement for premium typographic contexts.
Spacing appears generous and the hairline strokes can visually recede at smaller sizes, while the strong contrast and pointed details become striking in larger settings. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving paragraphs a continuous slanted movement.
