A high-contrast italic slab serif with hairline joins and strong thick–thin modulation across stems and curves. The unbracketed slab terminals read crisp and flat, while many strokes show tapered, calligraphic entry/exit points that add a slightly engraved, pen-drawn feel. Proportions are generously set with open counters and a noticeably wide stance, and the italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Overall rhythm is lively: sharp horizontals and slabs anchor the forms while thin connecting strokes and curved bowls keep the texture airy.
Best used for headlines, pull quotes, and short editorial settings where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It also suits branding, luxury packaging, and invitation-style materials that benefit from an elegant, slightly ornamental slab-serif voice.
The typeface conveys a poised, fashion-forward elegance with a hint of old-world display flair. Its contrast and italic movement create a dramatic, stylish tone suited to sophisticated headlines rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to merge the authority of slab serifs with the grace of a high-contrast italic, producing a distinctive display face that feels both structured and expressive.
Capitals appear particularly decorative, with pronounced horizontal slabs and occasional flourish-like stroke endings that give an ornamental, signpainted character. Numerals match the letterforms with similarly thin joints and crisp slab terminals, maintaining a coherent, refined texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
