A sharp, slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms show calligraphic stress and gently bracketed serifs, with long ascenders/descenders and a relatively compact lowercase body. Curves are clean and tightly drawn, while terminals often taper to fine points, giving the overall texture a light, sparkling rhythm in continuous text. The numerals echo the same high-contrast, italicized construction with delicate joins and flowing bowls.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, book covers, and brand applications that benefit from an elegant italic voice. It also works well for invitations and formal communications where a refined, high-contrast serif can carry tone and hierarchy, especially at display sizes.
The font conveys a polished, cultivated tone—poised and slightly dramatic, with a distinctly editorial and couture sensibility. Its crisp contrast and angled movement feel formal and expressive rather than neutral, suggesting sophistication and tradition.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary take on a classic, calligraphy-informed italic serif for sophisticated typography, prioritizing elegance, movement, and contrast in both display and short-form text settings.
Uppercase forms feel measured and classical, while the lowercase introduces more written character through angled strokes and tapered terminals. At larger sizes the fine details read as luxurious; at smaller sizes the hairlines and tight joins may require thoughtful sizing and spacing to preserve clarity.
