A delicate italic serif with sharp, hairline horizontals and thicker, tapered verticals that create a crisp high-contrast rhythm. The slant is pronounced and consistent, with long, graceful entry strokes and pointed terminals that often end in fine, triangular serifs or needle-like tips. Curves are smooth and oval, counters are generous, and capitals feel slightly narrower and loftier, giving the alphabet a poised, elongated silhouette. Numerals and lowercase follow the same calligraphic stress, with a light baseline touch and a generally airy color on the page.
Well suited to magazine-style editorial settings, fashion and beauty branding, and upscale packaging where a light, refined italic voice is desired. It performs especially well for headlines, pull quotes, short passages, and display lines; for longer text, it benefits from comfortable sizes and ample leading to preserve its airy contrast.
The overall tone is sophisticated and stylish, with a couture-like elegance that reads as formal and considered rather than casual. Its delicate strokes and sweeping italics suggest classic editorial typography and ceremonial uses, projecting quiet luxury and a literary refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive, high-contrast italic companion for classic serif typography, emphasizing elegance, motion, and a premium feel. Its construction prioritizes graceful word shapes and sophisticated sparkle over dense, utilitarian text color.
The italic construction leans toward a drawn, pen-informed feel: many letters show subtle asymmetry and tapering, and several forms use extended strokes that add momentum in words. Because the thinnest parts approach hairline thickness, the design’s character depends on clean reproduction and sufficient size for the fine details to remain visible.
