A high‑contrast italic serif with hairline horizontals and sharply tapered terminals. Strokes show a calligraphic, pen-driven modulation, with narrow joins, pointed apexes, and subtly bracketed serifs that often resolve into fine, flicked endings. The lowercase is compact and lively, with a pronounced rightward slant, open counters, and a rhythmic, slightly springy baseline; ascenders are long and slender, and curves (notably in o, e, s) are drawn with clean, tensioned bowls. Capitals are elegant and spacious with refined entry strokes, while numerals keep the same delicate, editorial color and crisp contrast.
Well suited to editorial layouts, magazine features, and cultured branding where an elegant italic voice is desired. It can shine in headlines, pull quotes, and book or journal titling, and also works for formal stationery or invitations when used at sizes that preserve its delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is sophisticated and cultivated, leaning toward editorial polish rather than rustic or decorative expressiveness. Its sharp contrast and italic movement suggest luxury, poetry, and classical refinement, with a light, airy presence on the page.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp finishing, emphasizing grace, speed, and a refined reading rhythm. It prioritizes visual elegance and contrast-driven sophistication in display and editorial contexts.
In text setting the thin hairlines and sharp terminals create a bright typographic color and a distinctly italic cadence, especially visible in the narrow, slanted forms of n, m, and u and the swash-like turns in letters such as f, j, and y. The design rewards generous sizes and considerate spacing where the fine details can remain clear.
