A high-contrast italic serif with strong thick-to-thin transitions, sharp wedge and hairline serifs, and a distinctly calligraphic, right-leaning rhythm. Curves are tightly controlled and smooth, with vertical stems reading dark and confident while the connecting strokes and terminals taper to fine points. Capitals feel stately and sculpted, while the lowercase shows a compact, polished texture with pronounced entry/exit strokes and a lively italic flow. Numerals echo the same contrast and sweeping forms, producing an overall crisp, luxurious color on the page.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and italic motion can be appreciated—magazine and editorial headlines, fashion and beauty branding, campaign typography, and premium packaging. It also works well for short-form emphasis such as pull quotes, cover lines, and refined invitations where a formal, upscale voice is desired.
The tone is sophisticated and fashion-forward, with a sense of luxury and drama typical of high-contrast italics. It feels confident and ceremonial, balancing classic bookish authority with an editorial, display-led flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-end italic voice with dramatic contrast and polished detailing, prioritizing elegance and impact over neutral text utility. Its forms aim to provide a fashionable, editorial presence while maintaining a traditional serif structure.
The italic angle and thin hairlines create an energetic, sweeping cadence, while the strong verticals keep the forms grounded and legible at larger sizes. Pointed terminals and fine cross-strokes give the face a delicate sparkle that becomes most apparent in headlines and pull quotes.
