A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, tapering terminals. The letterforms are tall and relatively compact in their set width, with a consistent rightward slant and a smooth, continuous stroke flow that reads as pen-informed rather than rigidly geometric. Serifs are fine and pointed, with frequent wedge-like entry strokes and hairline finishing strokes; curves show clean, polished transitions from stress to hairline. Lowercase forms are narrow and rhythmic, with restrained ascenders/descenders and compact counters that keep texture even in longer lines; numerals follow the same high-contrast, slightly calligraphic construction.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine pull quotes, and refined branding where an elegant italic presence is desired. It also fits invitations, packaging, and book-cover titling, particularly when set at medium-to-large sizes where the hairlines and sharp serifs can remain crisp.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-minded polish. Its slender, high-contrast italic voice suggests formality and luxury while remaining readable enough for controlled, display-forward text settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxurious, high-fashion italic serif for sophisticated display typography, balancing classical serif structure with a more calligraphic, flowing italic rhythm.
Uppercase forms feel statuesque and measured, while the lowercase introduces more fluidity and gesture, especially in letters like g, y, and z. The sample text shows a smooth, even color at larger sizes, with hairlines that benefit from generous spacing and clean reproduction.
