A delicate italic serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. The letterforms show a calligraphic construction with diagonal stress, long flowing curves, and fine hairline serifs that often resolve into pointed, wedge-like ends. Spacing and rhythm feel airy, with wide, sweeping capitals and more compact lowercase forms; the overall texture is crisp and bright at display sizes, with thin horizontals and joins that emphasize the high-contrast skeleton.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and large-format typography where the thin details can remain intact. It also fits luxury branding touchpoints—packaging, cosmetics, fragrance, and event materials—where an elegant italic voice is desired. For longer text, it works most comfortably in short passages or carefully set intros with ample leading and high-quality output.
The tone is polished and aspirational, evoking fashion editorials and high-end publishing. Its pronounced italic movement adds a sense of sophistication and speed, while the razor-fine details convey exclusivity and finesse rather than sturdiness.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-fashion, high-craft italic serif voice with strong contrast and graceful motion. It prioritizes elegance, sharp detail, and a refined page color for display-led typography.
Capitals are noticeably expansive and gracefully curved, lending a ceremonial feel in headings. Numerals match the italic slant and contrast, reading as elegant rather than utilitarian; fine details suggest the design will reward careful sizing and generous reproduction conditions.
