A very delicate italic serif with pronounced stroke contrast, fine hairlines, and crisp, tapering serifs. The letterforms lean with a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, showing long ascenders/descenders and generous internal whitespace. Curves are clean and controlled, with thin entry/exit strokes and occasional flourish-like terminals (notably in letters such as Q, J, and z), while capitals remain narrow and poised. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, hairline-heavy construction, keeping an airy color on the page.
Best used for display and short-to-medium text where finesse is desirable—magazine headlines and subheads, pull quotes, book covers, invitations, and premium branding. It can also serve well for elegant packaging or labels when printed at sufficient size to preserve the hairlines.
The overall tone is graceful and polished, evoking editorial sophistication and formal correspondence. Its lightness and flowing italic movement give it a romantic, upscale feel suited to understated luxury rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-contrast italic voice for sophisticated typography, balancing classical serif structure with a distinctly calligraphic, flowing cadence. It emphasizes elegance, gesture, and sparkle on the page rather than dense, rugged readability.
Spacing and proportions favor elegance over robustness: counters are open, joins are slender, and the thinnest strokes require adequate size and good reproduction conditions. The italic forms maintain consistency across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, continuous flow in word shapes.
