A high-contrast italic serif with a distinctly calligraphic construction: thick, sculpted main strokes taper into hairline connections and needle-fine serifs. Letterforms are narrow-to-moderate in feel with fluid, right-leaning stress and crisp, pointed terminals. Capitals show elegant, flared entrances and exits, while lowercase forms use slender joins, lively curves, and a pronounced italic rhythm. Numerals follow the same sharp contrast and tapered finishing, giving the set a cohesive, dressy texture in text.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, luxury branding, editorial pull quotes, and event materials where contrast and elegance are desired. It will also work for short passages at comfortable sizes, especially in high-quality print or high-resolution digital contexts.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, combining classic elegance with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italic motion read as premium and expressive rather than utilitarian.
Designed to deliver a sophisticated, modern take on an italic text serif—prioritizing elegance, motion, and high-end visual impact through extreme stroke contrast and finely finished details.
Spacing appears airy enough to let the thin strokes breathe, but the extremely fine hairlines and delicate serifs suggest careful sizing and contrast management for best clarity. The italic forms feature noticeable stroke modulation and tapered arms, producing a bright, sparkling page color in larger settings.
