A high-contrast serif italic with sharp hairlines and confident, swelling main strokes. Serifs are finely tapered and mostly bracketed, with a crisp, chiseled finish that keeps counters open despite the contrast. The italic construction shows a pronounced slant and lively, calligraphic modulation, with tall capitals and energetic diagonals. Numerals and lowercase maintain a consistent, rhythmic texture, producing a sparkling page color at display sizes.
Well-suited to magazine and newspaper-style headlines, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where contrast and movement are desirable. It can also serve luxury branding, book covers, and posters that benefit from a classic, high-end serif italic. For longer text, it works best in larger sizes or with generous leading to preserve its delicate details.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, combining a classical bookish sensibility with fashion-forward polish. Its sharp contrast and angled movement feel expressive and sophisticated, lending an upscale, editorial voice rather than a plain utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif foundation with heightened contrast and an expressive italic cadence. Its precise hairlines and sculpted serifs aim for elegance and impact, prioritizing visual drama and refinement in display and editorial contexts.
Capitals appear stately and relatively narrow, while the lowercase has a more flowing, cursive-like italic logic that increases apparent width in combinations. Thin joins and hairline terminals suggest it will look most confident when given enough size and breathing room.
