A high-contrast italic serif with crisp hairlines, sharp tapered terminals, and finely bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a pronounced rightward slant and a calligraphic modulation, with thick verticals and very thin connecting strokes that create a lively, shimmering rhythm. Capitals are stately and slightly narrow in feel, while the lowercase has fluid joins, compact apertures, and distinctive italic forms (notably the single-storey a and g). Numerals follow the same high-contrast, editorial style, with elegant curves and delicate entry/exit strokes.
This font excels in headlines, magazine typography, pull quotes, and title treatments where an elegant italic voice is desired. It also suits book covers, chapter openers, and branded communications that benefit from a refined, high-contrast serif presence.
The overall tone is polished and expressive, conveying a sense of luxury and cultured sophistication. Its dramatic contrast and italic energy feel suitable for fashion-led, literary, or classic editorial voices rather than purely utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to provide a classic, high-fashion italic companion for editorial typography, prioritizing elegance, contrast, and expressive movement over neutral text anonymity.
Stroke endings often resolve into fine points, and the italic construction emphasizes sweeping curves and directional movement. Spacing appears tuned for display or headline use, where the thin strokes can remain clear and the contrast can be appreciated.
