A sharp, slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, flared stroke endings. The forms show a calligraphic construction: narrow joins, pointed terminals, and smoothly swelling stems that open into wedge-like feet rather than blunt slabs. Counters are compact and the rhythm is lively, with crisp diagonals and energetic curves; capitals feel stately and slightly narrow in presence, while the lowercase runs with a steady, editorial texture. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, mixing straight spines with sweeping curves and fine hairline entries/exits.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazine features, cultural journalism, and book or journal titling where a refined, italic voice is desired. It also fits branding and packaging that benefit from a polished, fashion-forward serif presence, and works effectively for short blocks of display text, pull quotes, and prominent headings.
The overall tone is cultivated and stylish, leaning toward classic print sophistication with a contemporary sharpness. It reads as confident and polished, with an expressive italic motion that adds drama without becoming ornamental.
Likely designed to provide an elegant italic serif with strong calligraphic logic and crisp flare-ended strokes, aiming for high-end editorial and branding impact. The emphasis appears to be on expressive movement and sharp detail while maintaining a composed, readable text color in larger settings.
Round letters like C, O, and Q show clean, controlled curvature with fine hairline transitions, while diagonals (V, W, X, y) emphasize the font’s brisk, directional movement. The flared endings and pointed terminals create bright, high-frequency detail that becomes especially noticeable at larger sizes.
