A sharply modulated italic serif with sweeping, calligraphic construction and pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Strokes taper into fine hairlines, with crisp bracketed serifs and long, energetic entry and exit strokes that create a lively forward slant. Proportions feel classical and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains an even, readable rhythm with open counters and graceful curves. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, pairing delicate terminals with confident main strokes for an overall polished texture.
Well suited to fashion-forward editorial design, magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding where an elegant italic voice is desirable. It can also serve book-cover titling or chapter openers, especially when paired with a calmer companion for longer reading.
The tone is poised and upscale, combining editorial sophistication with a touch of theatrical flourish. Its delicate hairlines and flowing italic movement suggest luxury, tradition, and cultivated taste rather than rugged practicality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-style italic serif with a distinctly calligraphic touch—prioritizing grace, contrast, and expressive rhythm for display and editorial emphasis.
The italic angle and elongated terminals create strong horizontal motion, making word shapes feel continuous and silky. Fine details and thin connecting strokes imply a preference for generous sizes and good reproduction conditions where hairlines can remain intact.
