A refined italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms lean with a smooth, continuous cursive rhythm, combining crisp, wedge-like serifs and tapered terminals that sharpen into fine points. Curves are lively and slightly elastic, with narrow joins and a delicate baseline presence; numerals and capitals keep a formal silhouette while maintaining the same high-contrast, pen-like stroke logic.
Well suited to editorial settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, or refined headlines. It also fits book and magazine covers, cultural branding, and formal invitations where contrast and elegance are central to the look.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, suggesting editorial polish and classic sophistication. Its dramatic contrast and graceful slant give it a luxe, fashion-forward air while still feeling rooted in traditional book typography.
Likely designed to deliver a sophisticated italic companion with strong calligraphic character, prioritizing elegance, contrast-driven sparkle, and a classic reading rhythm for premium editorial and display work.
The italic construction is strongly expressive, with distinctive entry/exit strokes and occasional ornamental curls that add personality in display sizes. Spacing reads open enough for continuous text, but the finest hairlines and sharp terminals will feel most confident at larger sizes or on high-quality output.
