A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline terminals. Letterforms are narrow and flowing, with long, tapered entry strokes and gently bracketed serifs that often resolve into sharp, calligraphic points. Curves are smooth and slightly extended, giving bowls and counters an airy feel, while the italic axis and consistent forward slant create continuous rhythm across words. Numerals echo the same high-contrast, softly calligraphic construction, reading best when given space and size.
Best suited to display and short-form typography such as magazine headings, pull quotes, invitations, certificates, and high-end branding where its fine hairlines can be preserved. It can also work for brief passages in print at comfortable sizes, especially when paired with a sturdier companion for body copy.
The overall tone is polished and expressive, leaning toward classic sophistication rather than neutrality. Its sweeping italics and refined contrast evoke editorial luxury, formal correspondence, and a romantic, literary sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic voice for elegant composition—prioritizing grace, movement, and a luxurious typographic color over utilitarian robustness at small sizes.
Ascenders and capitals show noticeably elongated strokes and occasional flourish-like terminals, which heighten elegance but can increase sensitivity to tight tracking or small sizes. The texture on the page is light and shimmering, with vertical stress and crisp joins that emphasize a premium, print-oriented feel.
