A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic construction. Strokes transition quickly from hairline thins to robust stems, with wedge-like, flared terminals and sharply tapered entry/exit strokes. Serifs are crisp and angled, often feeling like pointed fins rather than flat slabs, and curves are drawn with tight, glossy modulation that gives counters a polished, sculpted look. The rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in color due to strong contrast and variable stroke density across letters, while overall proportions stay balanced for text and display settings.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, brand marks, and premium packaging where high contrast and italic energy can be showcased. It can also work for short passages, pull quotes, and titles where a refined, dramatic voice is desired, especially at sizes that preserve the delicate hairlines.
The font reads as elegant and theatrical, combining classic bookish italics with a modern, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp hairlines and flared finishing strokes evoke luxury, refinement, and a sense of motion, making it feel confident and attention-seeking rather than quiet or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a sophisticated italic voice with strong calligraphic contrast and flared, wedge-like finishing details. It aims to balance classical serif cues with a sharper, more contemporary glamour suitable for high-end editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the extreme thins and pointed terminals create a sparkling texture at larger sizes, while dense joins and bold curves give emphasis to key words. Numerals share the same high-contrast, sculpted treatment, with striking thick-to-thin transitions that feel display-oriented.
