A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced diagonal slant and crisp, hairline connections. Strokes move from very thin hairlines to weighty main stems, with sharp, tapered serifs and wedge-like terminals that give the letters a cut, polished finish. Curves show a clear calligraphic stress, and many lowercase forms use flowing, looped entry/exit strokes (notably in letters like a, f, g, y, and z), creating a lively rhythm. Proportions feel moderately compact with a steady x-height, while the italics introduce variable glyph widths and a dynamic texture across words.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine-style typography, and brand applications where a polished, upscale voice is desired. It also fits invitations and short-form statements where the high contrast and flowing italics can be appreciated without the constraints of small-size body copy.
The overall tone is sophisticated and expressive, balancing classic bookish refinement with a fashion-forward sheen. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic forms read as formal and stylish, with an editorial elegance suited to premium contexts.
Likely designed to deliver a classic italic serif experience with heightened contrast and a distinctly calligraphic gesture, providing elegant emphasis and a luxurious texture for display and editorial settings.
The font’s sharp joins and fine hairlines create a bright, sparkling page color at larger sizes, while the energetic italic movement adds emphasis even without additional styling. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, slanted construction, matching the letterforms for cohesive display use.
