This typeface is a sharp, calligraphic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a consistent forward slant. Serifs are hairline and pointed, with many strokes tapering to needle-like terminals, giving letters a crisp, etched finish. Curves are drawn with generous, sweeping arcs (notably in round capitals and numerals), while vertical strokes stay sleek and controlled; the overall rhythm feels quick and tightly spaced. The lowercase shows a compact structure with clean joins and a lively, pen-driven flow that stays coherent across the alphabet and figures.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and brand identities that benefit from a refined, high-style voice. It performs especially well at larger sizes where the hairline serifs and tapered details can remain clear, making it a strong choice for covers, display copy, and sophisticated packaging accents.
The tone is polished and expressive, combining classic sophistication with a distinctly contemporary, fashion-forward edge. Its dramatic contrast and brisk italic movement convey luxury, confidence, and a slightly theatrical flair without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended as a stylish display serif that leverages pen-like contrast, slender proportions, and crisp terminals to create a memorable, upscale typographic signature. It prioritizes elegance and impact in short to medium text settings where its distinctive stroke modulation can be appreciated.
Capitals have a display-like presence, with a few characters featuring striking diagonal hairlines and long, tapering strokes that read as intentional signature details. Numerals echo the same calligraphic contrast and curved energy, supporting elegant figure setting in headlines and pull quotes.
