A very slender italic slab serif with hairline strokes and crisp, unbracketed slab terminals. Letterforms are sharply drawn and clean, with gentle, controlled curves and a consistent rightward slant. Proportions feel moderately condensed with ample internal whitespace, and the overall rhythm is calm and even. The uppercase shows understated, straight-ended serifs and long, elegant diagonals, while the lowercase maintains a smooth, lightly calligraphic flow with compact joins and narrow counters.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, book or album covers, luxury branding, and elegant invitations where its hairline slabs can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial text at larger sizes, especially in high-resolution print or well-tuned on-screen environments.
The tone is quiet and sophisticated, leaning toward an editorial and fashion-oriented elegance. Its whisper-thin presence and measured italic movement read as refined and tasteful rather than emphatic, lending a cultured, literary feel.
The design appears intended to blend the authority and structure of slab serifs with the finesse of a hairline italic, creating a high-end, contemporary editorial voice. It prioritizes elegance, whitespace, and a smooth reading rhythm over robustness and heavy color on the page.
Because the strokes are extremely thin, small sizes and low-contrast reproduction may cause the serifs and hairlines to disappear; it benefits from generous spacing and careful output. Numerals match the text style with similarly light construction and restrained, classical curves.
