A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced calligraphic axis and sharply tapered terminals. Strokes transition quickly from thick vertical-ish stems to hairline joins, with crisp bracketed serifs and wedge-like feet that reinforce a lively, slanted rhythm. Counters are compact and slightly teardrop-shaped in places, and curves (notably in C, O, S, and the numerals) show a polished, carved quality. The overall texture is dark and energetic, with expressive entry/exit strokes and distinctive, slightly flamboyant details in letters like Q, J, and the lowercase r and s.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and short passages where its contrast and italic flow can be appreciated. It works well for editorial design, fashion/beauty branding, premium packaging, and event or hospitality materials that benefit from a dramatic, refined serif voice.
The font conveys drama and refinement—confident, theatrical, and fashion-forward. Its strong contrast and sweeping italic movement give it a glamorous, headline-oriented tone that feels more boutique and editorial than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif foundation with heightened contrast and expressive italic gestures, creating an attention-grabbing display face that still reads as traditionally rooted. Its sharp terminals, bracketed serifs, and rhythmic slant aim to project elegance while maintaining a bold, contemporary presence.
In the text sample, the dense color and pronounced stress create a punchy word shape at larger sizes, while the hairlines and tight joins suggest careful spacing and a preference for display settings. Numerals share the same calligraphic contrast and angled stance, helping mixed text keep a cohesive, upscale feel.
