A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline joins. The letterforms are built on a sweeping, calligraphic axis, with long tapered entry and exit strokes and subtly flared stroke endings that replace abrupt slab-like terminals. Curves are generous and open, while verticals remain crisp; counters feel spacious, and the overall texture is light, glossy, and slightly sparkling on the page. Numerals and capitals follow the same high-contrast, flowing logic, with pointed apexes and finely tapered diagonals that keep the rhythm lively.
Best suited to large sizes where the fine hairlines and tapered terminals can be appreciated—magazine covers, pull quotes, chapter openers, premium packaging, and event materials. It can work for short passages in high-quality print or high-resolution digital settings, especially when paired with a sturdier companion for longer reading.
The tone is poised and luxurious, leaning toward fashion and literature rather than utilitarian text. Its slender strokes and sculpted italics convey sophistication and romance, with a distinctly editorial sense of drama.
The design appears intended to evoke a contemporary take on classic calligraphic italics: dramatic contrast, graceful movement, and refined, flared detailing aimed at high-end editorial and branding contexts.
In continuous text the slanted stress and hairline connections create a smooth, ribbon-like cadence; the thinnest strokes can visually recede at small sizes or on low-contrast backgrounds. The italic forms are assertive, so spacing and line length will influence readability more than with calmer book italics.
