A delicate italic serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and a continuous inline cut that splits many strokes, creating a engraved, hairline-within-stroke effect. Letterforms are narrow-to-moderate in footprint with tall capitals, generous ascenders/descenders, and a flowing, calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are sharp and tapered, terminals are often pointed or subtly hooked, and curves are drawn with poised, elongated sweeps rather than blunt joins. The figures and capitals follow the same refined contrast and slanted stress, with a consistent, lightly ornamental finish.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style typography, and brand marks where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also fits luxury packaging, beauty and fashion collateral, and formal invitations or certificates. For longer passages, it will perform most comfortably at larger text sizes with ample leading.
The overall tone is luxurious and airy, with a couture/editorial sophistication. The inline detail adds a crafted, jewelry-like sparkle that feels premium and slightly theatrical without becoming heavy. It reads as romantic and classic, suited to high-end contexts where delicacy is a feature rather than a limitation.
The design appears intended to blend classic italic serif elegance with an engraved inline flourish, producing a distinctive, high-end voice. The emphasis is on graceful motion, sharp refinement, and decorative craftsmanship rather than utilitarian text reading.
The inline carving is most noticeable on heavier stems and bowls, giving the face a two-stroke illusion while preserving a crisp silhouette. Spacing appears open enough for display use, but the fine interior lines suggest it will reward larger sizes and high-quality reproduction.
