A high-contrast italic serif with sculpted, calligraphic construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes are sharply tapered with fine hairlines, while joins and terminals feel smoothly drawn, giving the letterforms a polished, inked rhythm rather than a rigid, mechanical one. Serifs are elegant and bracketed, often resolving into pointed or softly hooked endings, and the overall proportions read generously set with lively, slightly expansive curves. Uppercase forms show confident, flowing diagonals and crisp apexes; lowercase maintains a steady x-height with expressive ascenders/descenders and a distinctly cursive slant.
Best used for headlines, magazine and editorial typography, brand marks, beauty/fashion packaging, and large-format promotional design where contrast and slant can do the expressive work. It can also serve as a standout italic for pull quotes or section openers, but its fine hairlines and dramatic modulation generally favor larger sizes and quality printing.
The tone is refined and theatrical—suited to luxury cues and high-style editorial work. Its strong contrast and sweeping italic energy create a sense of sophistication, motion, and drama, with a distinctly classic, print-oriented feel.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern take on a classic high-contrast italic serif: elegant, attention-grabbing, and distinctly editorial. Its intent is to communicate sophistication and momentum through sharp contrast, tapered strokes, and controlled, calligraphic flair.
The design emphasizes gesture and contrast over neutrality: round letters carry deep, dark bowls against very thin connectors, and several characters feature subtle entry/exit strokes that add flourish without becoming fully script-like. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, reading as display-oriented with stylish shaping rather than strictly utilitarian forms.
