A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and robust main strokes, creating a crisp, glossy rhythm across words. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with pointed terminals and frequent teardrop/ball-like finishes on some lowercase forms, reinforcing a calligraphic influence. Curves are smooth and tensioned, counters are relatively open, and the overall texture alternates between delicate hairlines and bold stress, producing a lively, sparkling page color. Capitals are slightly narrow and formal, while the lowercase shows pronounced slant and energetic entry/exit strokes that help form fluid word shapes.
Well-suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display roles where contrast and slant can read cleanly. It can also work for short editorial passages or book-jacket copy when set with ample size and leading, supporting premium branding and formal printed materials.
The font reads as polished and sophisticated, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward tone. Its strong contrast and italic motion add drama and a sense of speed, suggesting luxury, culture, and refinement rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic serif voice with heightened contrast for a luxurious, editorial finish. It prioritizes graceful motion, crisp detailing, and striking thick–thin interplay to create memorable word shapes and a refined typographic presence.
Figures appear italic and high-contrast, matching the text’s stroke modulation; shapes like the 2 and 3 emphasize sweeping curves and sharp terminals. In longer text, the bright hairlines and steep slant create a dynamic texture that favors generous sizing and comfortable line spacing.
