A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced calligraphic slant, sharp hairline serifs, and strong thick–thin modulation. The letterforms show vertical stress and crisp, tapered terminals, giving strokes a chiseled, polished feel. Proportions are moderately condensed with lively width changes from glyph to glyph, and the spacing rhythm reads tight but controlled in text. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic with delicate hairlines and assertive main stems.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, covers, and identity work where an elegant italic voice is desired. It can also support premium packaging, event collateral, and formal announcements, particularly when set with generous size and leading.
The overall tone is sophisticated and fashion-forward, with a dramatic, print-luxury presence. It feels traditional in construction yet expressive in its italic movement, projecting refinement and authority rather than warmth or casualness.
The font appears intended as a high-contrast italic for expressive typography—capturing a classic, Didone-inspired sharpness while using italic motion to add energy and distinction. Its design emphasizes visual drama, refined detail, and a polished, upscale impression.
The design relies on fine details—thin joins, hairline serifs, and sharp terminals—so it reads most confidently at display sizes where the contrast can shine. In longer passages, its energetic italic cadence creates strong texture and a sense of momentum.
