This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and strong, weighty main strokes. Stems and joins have a subtly sculpted, flaring behavior that gives terminals a carved, wedge-like finish rather than flat slabs. The italics show a pronounced rightward slant and a dynamic rhythm, with lively entry/exit strokes and crisp, triangular serifs that feel cut with a pen or chisel. Counters are compact and neatly controlled, and the overall texture alternates between dense black forms and very fine connecting strokes, creating an energetic, editorial page color.
Best suited for large sizes where the fine hairlines and sharp details can be appreciated—magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and beauty packaging, cultural posters, and high-end brand marks. It can work for short text blocks in print-oriented layouts, but its dramatic contrast and italic rhythm make it most effective as a display or editorial accent.
The tone is poised and assertive—luxurious, fashion-forward, and slightly theatrical. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italic movement project sophistication and confidence, with a classic publishing sensibility rather than a casual or technical feel.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive, high-contrast italic voice with sculpted, flaring serif details—combining traditional serif elegance with a modern, attention-grabbing silhouette for contemporary editorial and branding work.
The numerals match the same calligraphic contrast and italic stance, reading as display-oriented and stylistically unified with the capitals and lowercase. In text settings the letterforms produce a vivid, high-contrast sparkle, and the slanted silhouettes create forward motion that emphasizes headlines and emphatic phrases.
