This italic serif shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp hairline serifs and tapered terminals, producing a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Letterforms are relatively open and spacious, with a modest x-height and long, graceful ascenders and descenders that create a light, airy texture in text. Curves are smooth and controlled, and diagonals (notably in V/W/X and the slanted strokes throughout) feel sharp and energetic. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, flowing construction, with slender joins and elegant curves that keep the overall color bright and refined.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, magazine typography, and fashion or beauty branding where an elegant italic voice is desirable. It also works nicely for book titling, pull quotes, invitations, and other display-to-text scenarios that benefit from a refined, high-contrast texture and lively slanted rhythm.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, leaning toward editorial sophistication rather than utilitarian text setting. Its delicate contrast and forward slant convey a sense of luxury and poise, with a quiet drama that suits expressive typography.
Likely intended as a sophisticated italic serif for conventional reading contexts and premium display applications, emphasizing elegance, sharp contrast, and a crafted, calligraphic flow. The design prioritizes visual finesse and expressive rhythm over ruggedness, aiming for a polished typographic voice.
The italic construction reads as intentionally designed rather than mechanically slanted, with consistent stroke logic across caps, lowercase, and figures. Wide sidebearings and fine hairlines give it a premium, high-end feel, but also suggest it will look best where reproduction is clean and sizes aren’t too small.
