A sharply tapered serif with an italic construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems swell into bold, dark verticals while hairlines slice away into razor-like terminals, creating frequent wedge cuts and pointed finials. Serifs are minimal and often implied through angled shears rather than bracketed slabs, giving the outlines a carved, blade-like character. Counters are elegant and open, with rounded forms that contrast against abrupt, chiseled joins; overall spacing reads steady but with lively, calligraphic rhythm across words.
Best suited to display roles where its contrast and pointed terminals can be appreciated: magazine and journal titling, fashion and beauty identities, premium packaging, and cover typography. It can work for short pull quotes or deck copy when set with comfortable size and spacing, but its crisp hairlines favor print-like, high-resolution contexts.
The font projects an upscale, editorial sensibility—polished and dramatic rather than utilitarian. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted terminals feel fashion-forward and slightly theatrical, lending a sense of luxury and intentional stylization.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif elegance through an exaggerated, blade-cut italic gesture—combining refined curves with incisive, graphic terminals. The goal seems to be a distinctive editorial voice that feels both traditional in structure and contemporary in detailing.
In text, the strong contrast creates bold texture even at moderate sizes, with distinctive letterform silhouettes (notably in curved capitals and the tapered lowercase). The figures follow the same sculpted logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with delicate cuts, which helps them feel cohesive with display typography.
