A high-contrast serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline terminals. Stems and curves are strongly tapered, with bracketed serifs that stay delicate and pointed rather than blocky. The italic slant is consistent and moderately steep, giving letters an energetic forward pull; counters are relatively open while joins and apertures stay clean and controlled. Proportions feel classical, with graceful ascenders and descenders and a smooth, rhythmic flow across words in text settings.
Well suited to editorial typography where a refined italic voice is needed—magazine features, book interiors, pull quotes, and elegant headlines. It can also support formal printed materials such as invitations and programs, especially when set with comfortable size and line spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, leaning toward editorial sophistication rather than utilitarian neutrality. Its calligraphic stress and fine detailing suggest luxury and refinement, with a slightly dramatic, expressive edge typical of high-fashion and literary typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic for refined reading and sophisticated titling, emphasizing graceful movement, sharp detailing, and an elevated, traditional serif presence.
At display sizes the thin strokes read crisp and the contrast becomes a defining feature, while in longer text the face relies on generous spacing and open forms to maintain clarity. Figures follow the same elegant contrast, with slender horizontals and curved bowls that match the italic rhythm of the letters.
