A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty main stems. Serifs are bracketed and pointed, with a distinctly calligraphic entry/exit logic that gives strokes a swept, slightly asymmetric finish. Capitals feel broad and open with generous internal counters, while lowercase forms show fluid joins and lively terminals; curves are smooth and tightly controlled, producing a crisp, polished texture in text. Numerals follow the same contrast and italic slant, with elegant curves and narrow joins that keep the rhythm continuous.
This font is well suited to editorial typography—magazine features, book typography, and sophisticated longform layouts—especially where an italic voice is needed for emphasis. It also performs strongly in display roles such as headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and invitations where elegance and contrast are desirable.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a sense of tradition and formality. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic motion add a stylish, editorial sophistication suited to premium communication.
The design appears intended as a classic text-serif italic with elevated contrast and a calligraphic sensibility, providing a refined emphasis style that remains readable while adding personality and prestige.
In running text the letterforms create a pronounced diagonal flow, and the contrast produces a sparkling page color at larger sizes. The italic styling is expressive but disciplined, balancing flourish with conventional proportions.
