A very slender serif italic with pronounced thick–thin contrast and hairline terminals. The design uses long, gently sweeping curves and a consistently forward slant, producing an airy texture with generous internal whitespace. Serifs are fine and sharp rather than bracketed, and many strokes taper into pointed, calligraphic ends. Uppercase forms feel tall and formal, while the lowercase shows flowing entry/exit strokes and occasional looped or extended descenders, giving lines a graceful, rhythmic movement.
Best suited to display typography where its fine contrast can shine: magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and beauty branding, invitations, and book or album titling. It can work for short text passages at comfortable sizes in high-quality print or high-resolution screens, but its hairline details suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-contrast reproduction.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, with a refined, editorial feel. Its thin strokes and high-contrast shapes read as sophisticated and slightly dramatic, evoking fashion, perfume, and classic literary titling rather than utilitarian text.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic, high-end serif italic voice with a strong emphasis on elegance and contrast. Its proportions and delicate finishing prioritize visual sophistication and a graceful reading rhythm in display settings.
In the sample text, the hairline joins and narrow stems create a bright, shimmering page color, especially in longer paragraphs. The numerals and capitals maintain the same elegant contrast, helping display lines feel cohesive, while the lowercase provides the most personality through its soft curls and elongated forms.
