A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. Serifs are narrow and largely unbracketed, with pointed, wedge-like entry and exit strokes that emphasize a chiseled, high-contrast silhouette. Uppercase forms feel open and slightly expansive, while the italic structure introduces flowing joins and tapered curves in the lowercase. Overall spacing reads airy and controlled, with a polished rhythm that relies on strong verticals, fine connecting strokes, and clean, razor-edged detailing.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, book titles, pull quotes, and other editorial applications where elegance and contrast are desirable. It can also work well for invitations, branding accents, and refined packaging, particularly when set with generous spacing and comfortable line height.
The tone is poised and cultivated, with a distinctly editorial feel. Its dramatic contrast and italic movement suggest sophistication and confidence, leaning toward luxury and literary refinement rather than casual or utilitarian use.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic with a crisp, modern finish—prioritizing dramatic contrast, graceful movement, and a premium look in display and editorial settings.
In the text sample, the sharp contrast remains prominent at display sizes, giving lines a lively sparkle. The slanted numerals and compact punctuation reinforce the continuous italic voice, and the letterforms maintain a consistent, disciplined stroke logic across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
