A slanted serif with crisp, pointed terminals and very fine hairlines contrasted against fuller main strokes. Serifs are sharp and delicate, with a distinctly engraved feel, while curves are smooth and tightly controlled, producing a clean, polished rhythm across lines. Proportions are moderately tall with narrow joins and a slightly formal stance; capitals are sleek and evenly spaced, and the italic structure is evident throughout, especially in the angled stems and tapered exits. Figures follow the same high-finish construction, with thin cross-strokes and elegant curves that read best when given breathing room.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazine features, book jackets, and refined marketing where a polished italic voice is desired. It also works effectively for titles, pull quotes, and formal stationery when set at sizes that allow the thin strokes to remain visible.
The overall tone is sophisticated and cultured, evoking fashion/editorial typography and classic bookish elegance. Its sparkle and sharpness feel formal and high-end rather than casual, with an expressive italic energy that adds a sense of motion and poise.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic serif voice with sharp detailing and a bright, luxurious contrast. Its construction prioritizes elegance and typographic sparkle, aiming for a premium, literary presentation in display and refined text contexts.
The design relies on delicate details—hairline serifs, tapered joins, and fine internal counters—so it benefits from careful sizing and generous leading to preserve clarity. The italic slant is consistent, giving paragraphs a smooth forward flow without becoming overly cursive.
