A sharply chiseled serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and long, hairline serifs. Strokes swell and taper with a calligraphic logic, producing narrow joins, pointed apexes, and crisp, knife‑edge terminals throughout. The italics are fluid but controlled, with a consistent rightward slant and lively internal rhythm; counters stay open and clean despite the delicate horizontals. Numerals follow the same high-fashion contrast, with slender spines and fine finishing strokes that emphasize verticality and sparkle.
Best suited to editorial headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury branding, and high-impact pull quotes where its contrast and slanted rhythm can be appreciated. It also works well for short subheads and refined titling, especially when paired with a calmer companion face for body copy.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, with a couture, magazine-ready sophistication. Its extreme contrast and keen terminals create a dramatic, premium feel that reads as modern elegance rather than rustic tradition.
Likely designed as a sophisticated italic serif for premium display typography, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and visual flair through extreme contrast and carefully tapered detailing. The consistent calligraphic stress and refined finishing suggest an intention to evoke contemporary editorial and luxury aesthetics.
In text, the thin connecting strokes and hairline serifs become a defining texture, giving paragraphs a shimmering, high-end rhythm while remaining legible at display sizes. The italic construction feels intentionally expressive, with subtle wedge-like forms and tapered feet that add speed and poise.
