A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and sharp, hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms show strong thick–thin modulation with tapered joins, narrow apertures, and crisp wedge-like serifs that often resolve into fine points. Curves are smooth and tensioned, with rounded bowls set against slender stems, and capitals that feel tall and sculpted. Spacing reads as display-leaning: open enough for clarity, but with an overall tight, stylish rhythm driven by the italic angle and contrast.
This style excels in magazine headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and brand identities where elegance and contrast are desirable. It also suits formal invitations and premium packaging, and can work for short passages when set with comfortable size and leading to preserve the fine hairlines.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone associated with luxury publishing and classic editorial typography. Its dramatic contrast and poised italic movement feel formal, tasteful, and slightly theatrical, emphasizing sophistication over casual friendliness.
The design appears intended to provide a classic, high-contrast italic voice for refined display and editorial settings, prioritizing graceful motion, sharp detail, and a luxurious page color.
Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with delicate diagonals and thin terminals that can look especially sharp at larger sizes. The lowercase shows a lively cursive influence (notably in the two-storey forms and looped strokes), while maintaining a consistent, controlled texture across lines of text.
