A very delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and razor-fine hairlines. The letterforms show a flowing, calligraphic construction with long entry/exit strokes and softly bracketed serifs that taper to points. Counters are open and oval, terminals are sharp and controlled, and the overall rhythm is gently forward-leaning with generous spacing that keeps the texture light and airy.
Well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section openers where an elegant italic can carry personality. It also fits luxury branding, beauty/fashion packaging, event invitations, and other applications that benefit from a refined, high-contrast serif presence rather than dense long-form text.
The tone is polished and high-end, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-oriented elegance. Its crisp hairlines and sweeping italics suggest sophistication and ceremony rather than utility, creating a luxurious, poetic voice in display settings.
The design appears intended as a sophisticated italic companion for editorial and brand typography, prioritizing grace, contrast, and calligraphic motion. It aims to deliver a premium, classic impression with minimal stroke weight and carefully finished details.
Capitals are notably slender and sculpted, with long, graceful strokes that emphasize verticality. Lowercase forms maintain a consistent slant and show refined joins and thin finishing strokes; numerals match the same high-contrast, delicate styling, which will read best at comfortable sizes where hairlines won’t disappear.
