A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and pronounced thick-to-thin modulation. The letterforms lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, pairing delicate, pointed serifs with sculpted, swelling main strokes. Capitals feel stately and slightly condensed with crisp terminals, while lowercase shows more fluid movement—noticeable in the single-storey italic a, the looping g, and the long, graceful descenders. Numerals follow the same display-leaning contrast and elegance, with fine entry strokes and crisp finishing details.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and brand marks where its contrast and italic energy can carry the composition. It will shine in magazine and fashion contexts, premium packaging, and elegant invitations, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the fine hairlines and pointed serifs are most legible.
The overall tone is polished and luxe, with a dramatic sparkle from the hairlines and a confident italic slant. It reads as classic and cultured, evoking fashion, publishing, and premium branding rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on classic italic serif sophistication—prioritizing elegance, motion, and high-contrast refinement for display and editorial applications.
Spacing and sidebearings appear tuned for larger sizes, where the thin strokes can breathe and the sharp details remain distinct. The italic forms keep a consistent forward motion across both uppercase and lowercase, creating a lively, sweeping texture in lines of text.
