This typeface is a high-contrast italic serif with pronounced vertical stress and very fine hairlines. Capitals show crisp, delicate serifs and tapered joins, while the italic construction produces lively entry/exit strokes and a consistent rightward slant. Curves are smooth and controlled, with relatively narrow internal counters in letters like C, O, and G, and sharp, clean apexes in forms like A, V, and W. The lowercase is compact and rhythmic, with a two-storey g, a single-storey a, and a long, elegant f; overall spacing reads even in text, with a polished, print-oriented sharpness.
It performs best in editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined display typography where contrast and italic movement are assets. It’s also well-suited to fashion branding, invitations, and book-cover titling, particularly when set at medium-to-large sizes with comfortable line spacing.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, evoking editorial sophistication and classic luxury. Its bright contrast and graceful italic motion feel ceremonial and high-style rather than casual, lending a sense of prestige to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast italic, prioritizing elegance, sparkle, and a disciplined vertical stress for premium display and editorial use. Its consistent slant and crisp detailing suggest an emphasis on stylish emphasis and refined hierarchy in composition.
Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curved forms and tapered ends that harmonize with the letters. The sample text shows strong word-shape definition and a distinctive italic rhythm, especially in sequences with many diagonals and rounded letters.
