A high-contrast italic serif with tapered, calligraphic construction and flared stroke endings that broaden into sharp, wedge-like terminals. The forms are narrow and energetic, with a pronounced forward slant, crisp hairlines, and strong thick-to-thin transitions. Serifs are minimal and blade-like rather than bracketed, giving the outlines a clean, cut-paper feel. Counters are relatively tight and the rhythm is brisk, while capitals show a slightly Roman, inscriptional poise adapted to an italic skeleton.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion branding, pull quotes, posters, and premium packaging where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short bursts of editorial text when generous size and spacing are available.
The font projects a polished, editorial elegance with a sense of speed and drama. Its sharp terminals and bright contrast feel luxurious and fashion-forward, while the traditional serif structure keeps it anchored in classic book and magazine typography.
The design appears aimed at delivering an upscale italic voice that blends classical serif proportions with a contemporary, high-contrast sheen. Its flared endings and razor-like terminals emphasize elegance and motion, prioritizing striking texture and refined impact in display typography.
Numerals and lowercase show lively italic joins and angular entry/exit strokes, reinforcing a handwritten, pen-driven impression without becoming script. At larger sizes the hairlines read especially crisp, and the overall color stays light and glossy due to the narrow proportions and contrast.
