This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with long, tapered hairlines and swelling main strokes that create a crisp, shimmering texture. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, with bracketed transitions that feel calligraphic rather than mechanical. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the capitals, while the lowercase shows lively width variation and pronounced ascenders/descenders, giving lines an energetic rhythm. The italic slant is consistent and supported by curved entry/exit strokes, producing an overall flowing, pen-driven impression.
It suits display and short-form typography where elegance and contrast can be appreciated—editorial headlines, magazine typography, book covers, pull quotes, and premium branding. It can also work well for invitations or formal announcements where a refined italic voice is desired.
The tone is polished and expressive, balancing classic bookish refinement with a fashion-forward, editorial sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italics suggest sophistication and a touch of theatricality, making it feel premium and intentional rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic serif voice with heightened contrast and graceful, calligraphic detailing—aimed at expressive, upscale composition and refined typographic branding.
In text, the strong stroke contrast and long extenders create distinctive word shapes and an airy page color at larger sizes. The numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, and several glyphs feature small flourish-like terminals that add personality without becoming overtly decorative.
