A slanted, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered stroke endings and small, knife-like wedge serifs. The thick–thin modulation is pronounced, giving counters a glossy, carved look and producing crisp joins and pointed terminals throughout. Uppercase forms feel compact and sculpted with energetic diagonals, while lowercase shows more calligraphic movement, including looped descenders and occasional swash-like terminals (notably in letters such as g, j, y, and z). Numerals follow the same italic, display-driven rhythm with thin entry strokes and emphatic weight on the main curves.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and other display typography where its high contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding systems—such as beauty, fashion, hospitality, and luxury packaging—where a refined but attention-grabbing serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and theatrical, with a confident, fashion-editorial flair. Its sharp contrast and swept italic stance convey luxury and drama rather than quiet neutrality, lending a sense of ceremony and premium branding.
The design appears intended as a display-oriented serif that blends conventional letterforms with calligraphic sharpness, prioritizing elegance, contrast, and motion. Its italic stance and sculpted terminals suggest a goal of creating a distinctive, high-end voice for editorial and brand-forward settings.
At larger sizes the fine hairlines and pointed terminals read as deliberate sparkle, while tighter settings may emphasize the active texture created by the strong contrast and angled stress. The lively baseline movement in the lowercase can add character in headlines but may feel assertive for long, continuous reading.
